The poems of Broken Open take the reader on a journey from the trance of addiction, family dysfunction, and depression to the wakefulness of open-hearted self-acceptance.
...the poems [in Broken Open] are powerful and the journey [Lynda describes is] both gripping and emphatically human! -Michael Glaser, Maryland Poet Laureate EmeritusThese astonishing poems by Lynda Skeen bring the poet's courage and authenticity front and center. There is such depth and honesty in looking at one's experience and writing with her unrelenting gaze. -Julie Suhr, writer, poet, editor Lynda Skeen's poetry is inquisitive, attentive and authentic. Within these engaging poems you'll experience imagination and perception, society, and self. -Dan Kaufman, poet and aspiring pacifistLynda's poetry plunges into some of the essential angst of human life, exploring the shadows, then soothes the soul by taking refuge in nature. Her passionate love of nature is an inspiring reminder to us all of what is truly essential. -Ann Fielder, writer and acupuncturist
Each poem is real, raw, and relatable. -Julie Lockhart, Pushcart Prize nominee
