About the Book

How have you fallen from heaven,
O morning star, son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
you who once laid low the nations!

You said in your heart,
I will ascend to heaven;
I will raise my throne
above the stars of God;
I will sit enthroned on the mount of the assembly,
on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain.
I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;
I will make myself like the Most High.

But you are brought down to the grave,
to the depths of the pit.
Those who see you stare at you,
they ponder your fate:
Is this the man who shook the earth
and made the kingdoms tremble,
the man who made the world a desert,
who overthrew its cities
and would not let his captives go home?

All the kings of the nations lie in state,
each in his own tomb.
But you are cast out of your tomb
like a rejected branch;
you are covered with the slain,
with those pierced by the sword,
those who descend to the stones of the pit.
Like a corpse trampled underfoot,
you will not join them in burial,
for you have destroyed your land
and killed your people.

ISAIAH 14:12-20


About the Author

Dennis L. Weise was a high school dropout that learned the value of an education, and went back to finish his education by attaining his GED and then college. He has nearly finished a Bachelors of Science Degree in Management from Colorado Christian University, Denver, Colorado where he was chosen Class Representative for class number, CL-10 in the School of Innovative Studies at CCU in 1996. Several credits are yet needed to finish the degree. It is his hope that the sales from his books will give him the much-needed money to pay for the remaining credits.

He has been writing for approximately thirty years. He has written for Babytalk magazine, and has been published in Quiet Thoughts, Pittsburgh: Poetry Press. He was cited Golden Poet 1991, by World of Poetry, Sacramento, California. He was also awarded a certificate of merit for Each Day with You by World of Poetry.

He is presently working on a self-help/encouragement book for people he suffer from A.D.H.D., Bipolar Disorder, and Social Anxiety Disorder. He loves to write stories that have substance, and make you think. He writes from the perspective that you need to be right there with the characters, seeing, feeling, smelling, tasting, and touching the experience for you self.

Further, he works at the Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site, (Department of Energy), in Golden, Colorado, where he provides technical computer support for the site. He holds a MCP, A+, and certifications from most major computer manufactures, including Hewlett Packard, Dell, and IBM.
