More DescriptionI was once told that poetry is dead, and if not, it is on a respirator clinging onto dear life. If that is the case, then this book will be the defibrillator, poetry the patient, and I the doctor. The Beauty within the Vessel: Poetry from a troubled youth is a book of poetry written over a year. These poems reflect the author's journey as he negotiates his final year in college and tries to figure out what he will do once he graduates. As you take the journey into the author's life, you will experience poems about identity, trying to find purpose in life, relationships, transitions, loss of loved ones, religion, and becoming an "adult".
