Canvas: A Collection of Poems
Bu e-kitap hakkında
Canvas is a breathtaking collection of poetry that creates colorful experiences of delicacy and wonder. They are fearless and leave nothing unexplored, no words wasted. It’s the poetry that touches on all aspects of the human condition like life, death, love, moving on, evolving, growing up, hometowns, and family dynamic, life after trauma, and make-ups and breakups. About the experience of violence, abuse, love, loss, and femininity.
The poems vary widely in emotion and is something to which all readers can relate. The musical, perfectly timed lines latch onto the heart and soul and does not let go.
It touches on morals and how when emotions are involved it’s not as black and white. The poetry is frequently written in a narrative manner that evocatively pulls you in and makes you feel. This book is about falling in love, bad decisions, and ultimately growth. The essence of it all is to show that no matter how far one falls all the mistakes don’t have to be what defines them.
It is covering a variety of themes: ardent and fiery love, airy philosophy, joy and pain, life lessons, and the esoteric. The poems relate interesting life situations, small or large, and have left a mark on the artist.
These poems read like abstract stories, exposing the artist bare. Rarely, will one encounter a work in which an artist is so transparently and fearlessly exposed. There’s as much fragility as there is fortitude: power, courage, vigor, contentment and peace of mind blend here with vulnerability, fear, anguish, melancholy, and misery. The result is a wholly human portrait.
They tell of the creation of powerful relationships as well as the deconstruction of those bonds; the development of strong religious beliefs and the painful losses of faith; transcendental philosophical brushstrokes and metaphysical pondering; declarations of personal strength and expressions of profound weakness.
These are pieces to be digested and, at the end of the collection, you will gain an insight into the author which reflects back to your own human experience. It is an expression of the wholeness of life.
