by Charles Goldman (Author)
Charles Goldman wrote the first nine parts of Empathy Road in 2010, out of a deeply felt inspiration. The source of this poem, as with many of his poems, comes from what the poet describes as "an engulfing presence of love and insight from beyond myself." In a world of poems composed from the need to juxtapose words in novel forms, it is gratifying to find poems still written in a romantic tongue, about the nature of the human struggle.
Empathy Road is partly a map to our own future as well as the heartfelt cry of a man to all his fellow travelers on their paths through life, It offers a ray of hope to those who struggle with the idea of cessation, and then applies that idea to the turning of the page of human history. What kind of future do we want for ourselves and for generations to come?
Here is the signal now come to so many of us that the Selfish modality of human business must end. And be replaced with one of Compassion and Empathy. This has to extend from our personal lives into the very way we govern our societies. The Poet believes that only this utter transformation of the way we conduct ourselves will save humanity from extinction.
