Synopsis

ROCKET CELESTIAL

Rocket Celestial is an exploration of human nature through the paradoxes of earth & the cosmos, science & religion, & history & advancement. It sets a stage of existential characters whose faith & morality are met with skepticism, & in which their curiosities can be dangerous.

“Rocket Celestial is a spooky, trippy, philosophical, and spiritual exploration of what lies both within and beyond the boundaries of bodily experience. It is a book that maps the triumphs of human ingenuity and warns us of the dangers curiosity, science, and pride may impose upon the future of humanity. Bloomquist’s poems stretch across time and space in search of “a transcendence / into the the womb of being, a vision of how we belong.”

  • Dexter L. Booth, author of Scratching the Ghost and Abracadabra, Sunshine
