 Excerpt

Hands of the Clock

 

Beloved, when I’m with you

the hands of the clock tremble.

Your beauty stuns them

and their raison d’etre disappears through a crack in time

 

like the intoxicated bee whose ecstatic nectar-drinking

made him forget to fly before the lotus blossom closed for the evening.

 

I too am in No Man’s Land after tasting you.

 

Like the hands of the clock, your beauty has stopped a thing within me.

 

I only seem fit to write rogue love poems

and sing tavern songs of intoxication and wonder.

 

Please give me another job

because, like the clock hands, my own raison d’etre

 

seems lost in the crack between waking and dream,

that majestic ocean of silence

stretching past infinity—

 

holding a silly bubble afloat

until it is no more.

With an unmistakable voice and a depth of presence, Leventhal’s work zooms
out and back inward, taking stock of it all. His poems survey the
surrounding landscapes: be it historical, natural, political, or emotional.
They reflect on love and loss with vulnerability, and on the prospect of
aging with optimism and gratitude. They travel centuries back in time and
simultaneously ask the question of what it means to be alive in the world
today. Years of leadership in the Jewish community provides him access to
Biblical language and wisdom. The artwork that accompanies the poems creates
and elegant conversation between visual art and poetry. There is a deep
reverence within many of these works that is balanced out by Leventhal’s
refusal to take himself too seriously, his zest for life, beaming in words
and brushstrokes from these pages. (Dakota Read- Editor)

Inner Hero cover

Poetry, Self-Help

Date Published: September 20, 2024

 

 

We all have a hidden power within us. What is the key to unlocking this
power?

This state of being in connection with ourselves and knowing exactly what
we should be doing in each moment is natural to all of us, like breathing.
We just need to remember how to access it.

Inner Hero: The Missing State of You is an interactive experience designed
to awaken the hero within by reconnecting you with your innermost energies
and intuition.

This inspiring illustrated collection of poems will take you on a journey
to reconnect with the forgotten part of yourself and discover, in the
process, that all the answers can be found within yourself. Each chapter,
uniquely termed an “inner state of feeling” like Disillusionment,
Leap of Faith, Love, Inner Hero, and more, is visually brought to life with
beautiful images that resonate deeply with the themes explored in the poems.
Every poem is followed by more in-depth reflections on the beauty of letting
go, taking responsibility for your own growth, and connecting with the
essence of who you truly are.

Inner Hero encourages you to interact with it by offering prompts to check
in with yourself after each chapter. The way to read the book is to monitor
how each poem, each message makes you feel and let something unexpected
happen. These poems are about feeling between the lines and discovering
something new but very natural to all of us as humans in the process.

Discover the power you were born with — it’s waiting within the pages
of poetry.

Touching upon her personal journey, Alina Kina shares an intuitive way of
reprogramming ourselves and changing the algorithms of our lives.
Remembering the essence of what it means to be living rather than following
a set of predetermined answers. Restoring our natural ability to feel
energies and grow in our levels of consciousness.

Your Inner Hero awaits—discover it now! Get your copy today and
unlock the doors to personal growth and profound inner connection.

About the Author

Alina Kina

By re-establishing the Inner connection to the deeper part of herself,
Alina witnessed a rapid transformation in her reality. A state of balance
and peace became her new norm, accompanied by enhanced mental clarity and
newfound energy to pursue her long- desired activities.

She experienced her creative abilities developing, uncovering new talents,
such as writing poetry, creating music and painting, which were not
accessible to her before. Alina writes in flow, a specific state of being
pure and letting the energy express itself through her.

The author hopes that her own story of searching, failing, and then being
guided towards an authentic and fulfilled life will inspire others to
restore their own connection to the forgotten part of
 themselves.
