Whether it's feelings of love, intimacy, or a special closeness, he maintains the feeling that death does not take these with him/her to the grave. Emotions and feeling outlast the flesh of the human body. Human intimacy draws near an enigmatic spiritual passion which conquers all on the prismatic scale of experience. When speaking of mythology Donny says, "myths were created to make sense of feelings which are complicated by very nature. They are perhaps more easily understood through persons greater than oneself. As for theology, a disciplined aspect, incorporates quite finely with passions and secured poetic comforts.In one of Donny's poems, he states, "Geese flood northern skies, mushrooms crop a blooming glade, her scent lingers slow." Here reads a wonderful example of how Donny incorporates sex and intimacy with nature. In truth he has always felt there is no real difference. There rests a comfort in nature which clearly exists on the same parallel as sex and sexuality.Donny lives calmly and mostly to himself as he draws inspiration for Asian poets, such as: Yasano Akiko, Basho, Issa, Tu Fu, and Ryokon. Finding beautiful contrast as well as condensed, packed, short lines which fulfill the reader takes Donny on a spiritual journey. This, in turn, brings him to a enlightenment of a strong poetic nurture which he strives to duplicate with each poem.
