ABSTRACT
This chapter is an autobiographical account of a synchronistic event that gave rise to a poetic work and changed Richard Berengarten’s life. What happened before, during, and after the event is unfolded by Richard in the narrative of this chapter. The external catalyst event, in May 1985, occurred in central Serbia, at the same location as the external primary event, a wartime massacre perpetrated 44 years previously by Nazi occupiers, in October 1941.
