WE LIVE IN AN IMMORAL AGE.
Humanity suffers from "nature deficit disorder." We have lost touch with the Earth, the Great Lawgiver. These poems unveil a moral code derived from the Earth. Part I reveals the moral code of the Lakota Sioux, a Plains Indian tribe whose way of life was taken from them. Part III shows the moral code of a former US Army sniper, an Indian killer who took part in the destruction of the Lakota. Both are moral codes of actions, not words. Part II, the middle section, reconciles these two opposing codes; it is the Law of the Land-the Earth''s moral code which affects animal, mineral, and vegetable. This is the Law which prevails over us all. It is immortal and omnipotent, it has the final say.
With stark and powerful language, The Law of the Land tells a poetic fable through three voices from America''s past, each describing their own unique stories and perspectives which impart lessons about life and morality. Though these voices (and their moral codes) appear in opposition, they interact in ways which illuminate a complex relationship between them. Red Hawk''s poems originate from an intellect and spiritual maturity that reveal a deep wisdom about the nature of life, America''s history, and our relationship with Mother Earth.

This book is an in-depth examination of the much needed process of 'self'-study known as self observation. We live in an age where the "attention function" in the brain has been badly damaged by TV and computers - up to 90 percent of the public under age 35 suffers from attention-deficit disorder! This book offers the most direct, non-pharmaceutical means of healing attention dysfunction. The methods presented here are capable of restoring attention to a fully functional and powerful tool for success in life and relationships. This is also an age when humanity has lost its connection with conscience. When humanity has poisoned the Earth's atmosphere, water, air and soil, when cancer is in epidemic proportions and is mainly an environmental illness, the author asks: What is the root cause? And he boldly answers: failure to develop conscience! Self-observation, he asserts, is the most ancient, scientific, and proven means to develop this crucial inner guide to awakening and a moral life. This book is for the lay-reader, both the beginner and the advanced student of self observation. No other book on the market examines this practice in such detail. There are hundreds of books on self-help and meditation, but almost none on self-study via self observation, and none with the depth of analysis, wealth of explication, and richness of experience which this book offers. - Häftad, Engelska, 2014

Mother Guru is a deeply personal, raw and vulnerable look at the relationship between a disciple and his or her spiritual teacher or Master. It is refined devotional poetry in the tradition of Hafiz and Rumi–whose poems of love continue to inspire millions throughout the world. In Western culture today, so marked by anti-religious sentiment and overriding dissatisfaction with the forms of the past, such centuries-old work as these great lovers of God have shared are indeed an enigma. Yet, their enormous popularity points to a hunger that is not being addressed in other significant ways. The special gift of Mother Guru is that it flows from the same heart stream as the writings of Hafiz, Rumi, Teresa of Avila, Kabir, Francis of Assisi and others who were "lost" to God in the most profound sense of the word. The fact that this poetry appears in contemporary dress is more gracious still. The author, Red Hawk, is a widely published and award-winning poet, and a tenured professor of English at the University of Arkansas. He is also an unabashed lover, a disciple of a great contemporary Master, Mister Lee Lozowick (1943-2010), and one who is willing to bare that discipleship in poetry written as prayer, expressly for and with his guru in mind and heart. In this sense, Mother Guru is a daring book and courageous, as the author overlooks scholarly reputation, trusting rather in the love that infuses what he writes. He also risks the opprobrium of those who limit the expression of the spiritual to sweet words and lofty sentiments. These are poems of a truly broken heart — pleading poems, begging poems, prayers and curses, bawdy, ironic, hilarious, tough-minded, sometimes angry, often just broken. Few books of poetry today attempt to traverse this razor's edge—fewer still can do so with respect, dignity and passion. Mother Guru is a guidebook to such a challenge and offers inspiration and a call to profound honesty to the sincere seeker of any theistic, guru-oriented, or mystical tradition, whether Christian, Sufi, Buddhist or nature-based. In so far as it opens a window into the Master-disciple relationship, it is particularly useful to those who have worked or wish to work with a teacher or mentor. Red Hawk's years of discipleship under the fierce protection and guidance of a living Master make him an ideal witness to some hard-won and paid-for insights into the spiritual life; insights that may have relevance for others who undertake the spiritual path. - Häftad, Engelska, 2015

In this compilation of 58 short (10-line) poems, the poet skilfully describes those qualities of heart, mind and action that characterise the awakening of “the Feminine” within the human person. As the Feminine is awakened in both man and woman, the “Mother Spirit” emerges in each one, highlighted by a display of nurturing, kindness, gentleness, generosity, cooperation and forgiveness of self and others. THE WAY OF THE WISE WOMAN is a catalogue of such “Feminine” virtues and behaviour and a series of contemplations to be studied, prayed and enjoyed for their poetic beauty. Not a book for women only! In fact this is a book for all weary pilgrims on the Path of spirit, particularly those who lament that, after long years of hard work or practice the “breakthrough” still eludes. Both women and men are imprisoned by a judgmental “god” of righteousness and vengeance leading to a hardness of heart. THE WAY OF THE WISE WOMAN is dedicated to liberating its readers from this inner tyranny. As a training-manual of sorts, the poems are far from sweet whisperings, however. The Feminine, as the poet proclaims, is, also, fierce, strong, ruthlessly honest and confrontational as well as supportive. This collection may well serve to guide the seeker in self-examination as the poems encourage a refined vision of “what is,” of “what is possible” and a growing sense of the presence and attention needed to enter the halls of wisdom. Such training as the book presents seems critical in a social and political climate distinguished by a tragic dissociation from the heart and a growing alienation from the mother-wisdom of the earth. The author writes from long personal study and experience. His years of discipleship within religious schools of esoteric knowledge, allows him to share what has been gained and lost from following a Path. The inner struggles of this type of work on self are rendered with raw precision, while being beautifully delineated in these poems. Any reader will benefit from the fruits of understanding the poet has gained from these struggles. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2020

A savoury new collection nominated for the 1996 Pulitzer Prize in Literature. An impressive sequel to his previous work which was also nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. A reviewer once described Red Hawk's poetry as "having that rarest of all virtues: a sense of civilization." Another said that his "poems are so exquisite, they seem almost to have been translated from an alien tongue." Nowhere is that talent more on display than here, in his third book of poems.
