Another Mind's Eye is a poetry book for readers who generally dislike poetry. These poems are clear and accessible, and need neither explanation nor interpretation. People who enjoy
puzzling out a poem's meaning will find little pleasure here. From beginning to end, each poem unfolds naturally, with a storyteller's logic combined with a poet's passion.
From the light-hearted to the philosophical, the subjects of these poems vary widely, with some about the art of writing itself, as the author is fascinated by the sources of creative inspiration. Although she is self-taught and began writing late in life, she learned from the best poems of many great poets, with her primary influences being Walt Whitman, Langston Hughes and Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
In Another Mind's Eye, the poet's focus is on lyricism - the way words sound when placed together, to achieve a lilting rhythm and memorable phrases. As she dislikes the constraints of strict poetic forms (with the exception of Haiku), she writes in free verse. However, she uses rhyme, slant rhyme, and words with the same vowel sounds that echo throughout a poem to provide resonance and continuity. In the author's words, her poetic goal is to write words that flow 'trippingly on the tongue'.
