Description

"Mary the Life Saver" is a poetry book that examines the nature of human being, parting the veil of the mundane to reveal passion, beauty, myth, and mystery of human existence. This poetry book echoes a desire to forge a voice that is as curious as it is distinctive. It portrays intricate feelings of life and death in a wide array of emotions expressed in a thoughtfully imaginative way with vibrant interpretations stemming from the complexity and simplicity of a human soul.
