The thirty-two poems in Even the Cracks were curated by eighteen different literary magazines because of their authentic search for meaning in an ever-shifting world of elusive, but vital, truths. If you have ever found yourself living a bittersweet life, balancing between the joy of experiencing enlightenment and the pain of facing reality, this is the book of poems for you. The comforting beauty of nature nods to the pain of 'tooth and claw, ' the vastness of the night sky is both a comfort and a vacuum, ghosts live in the day to day, sometimes wrestled with at night. Death is an opportunity to face the immediacy of life and also a tragic end. The exigencies of family buoy us up and also drag us down. Our sense of self is elusive but also the ground we walk on. Old age both trumps youth and cannot compete. Open up Even the Cracks and take a moment to enjoy apogee before you're whipped back to perigee. You will find you are not alone in your journey.
