Zen Telegrams by Paul Reps offers insight into the spirit. A collection of one page image poems, it can be seen as a commentary on the world in which we live as Reps delves into each subject with only a few words. His simple style sets the mind in motion as his words, gallop, fall, or smear across the page. The result his poems open the soul. This book can be used as a meditative initiative, or a gentle reminder of the world we call home. For either use, it is a collection that is definately a must own because of the power it conveys.
