These four collections represent the sum total of my writing experience. I have produced them here in chronological order as I find the trajectory of artistic development, alongside the evolution of style, is as intriguing as the poems themselves. The Tower In My Town is my first collection and is tinged with the bleak timbre of a depressive mindset. My style is unrefined and raw and I still find it haunting. In Clarity was written as I had something of a dynamic awakening of spirit, and as such reflects a brighter mood, albeit written during a very difficult time. I experiment a little with styles and free-form and it is my most sincere and honest work to date. Heartbeats was written as an ode to the elation and joy of romantic Love and wild hope. I try to develop my own style and employ reckless use of enjambment and half-rhyme to evoke a manic, joyous euphoria. Nightmares is the polar opposite of Heartbeats and represents a return to the darkness of The Tower, but with a renewed energy and stylistic refinement. Rather than the bleak submission to a depressive mindset this collection is the acknowledgement and embrace of the dark energy that fills my thoughts. I hope you enjoy this collection as much as I have enjoyed living it.
