A Term of Existence gathers more than twenty-five years of poetry from Australian author Ken Mann - a body of work shaped by reflection, longing, imagination, and the quiet ache of being human. These verses trace the inner landscapes that formed the writer: moments of wonder, flashes of darkness, political storms, romantic confessions, and the fragile threads of meaning we cling to across a lifetime.
Within these pages, readers will find atmospheric, existential, and emotionally charged poems that move between the real and the imagined - from the realms of make-believe to the dilemmas of modern life. Included is the award-winning piece Existence of Shameless Minstrelsy (Poetry.com, 2006), a standout work that helped define Mann's early voice.
As a bonus, this edition also features an exclusive excerpt from The Black Locust, Book One of The Delta Witch Chronicles, offering a glimpse into the mythic world that would later become central to Mann's fiction.
A Term of Existence is a collection for readers who seek poetry that is reflective, atmospheric, and deeply human - a companion for anyone navigating the strange, beautiful experience of existence.
