The following is a collection of poems written in a variety of forms including open, closed, and nonce forms. Elegiac in tone, they comment on the knowledge of impermanence, the transitory nature of the physical world and of the self as a fixed identity. These poems reveal moments of self-revelation, observation, and ruminations on how the past shapes the present. More importantly, however, they seek to transform, shape, and direct the speaker. The poetry collected here aims to establish order out of the chaos of ordinary life experiences.
