BLURB:

Diving Into the Beloved is a mesmerizing collection of poetry that plunges into the realms of love, spirituality, and the soul's longing. Each poem is a profound reflection of the sacred dance between the lover and the Beloved, capturing the essence of divine connection and human vulnerability. Compton's words invite readers to explore the depths of their own hearts, making this book not just a literary work but a spiritual experience—an invitation to embrace the love that resides within and around us. With a youthful, modern interpretation of the path to enlightenment, this collection reminds us of the ecstatic poets like Rumi and Hafiz, yet Compton's voice remains distinctly his own, weaving together concrete details and bold imagery that will leave a lasting impression.

Excerpt:

Beloved, take me back

to that feeling space 

in dream time 

 

where I can easily navigate 

my yellow submarine 

 

with its pink propeller of love

while laughing at the absurdity

of being a character 

in your psychedelic cartoon 

 

Laughing and crying tears of tangerines

floating endlessly

in my submarine of love, 

silly, as it swims endlessly in you

 

I give up, I have no clue

why I continue to exist on your playground 

 

For the moment I will keep crying and laughing 

tears of tangerines 

until there are enough 

for a giant glass of your morning juice

 

Then, I hope that when you drink it

you will laugh at this cartoon, 

put it down

 

and I can go back to composing poetry 

to the tune of 

 

“We all live in Beloved's submarine

Laughing and crying tangerines of pure love

floating through galaxies and universes

sharing our love fruit with all

in Beloved's wild cartoon of Love”
