    About this ebook

    An original collection of sixty poems describing depression, faith and passion, written from a youthful point of view. Rhyme, rhythm and length vary with each piece, as will tone and topic. "High On Life," the poem for which the collection is named, describes the author's immediate feelings after quitting his first job. "At First Sight" molds the feeling of love into the form of a fleeing doe. "False Prophets Need Love Too" takes an empathetic, yet distanced, look at fanatical religious leaders. These are some of the author's favorite poems, and he hopes you will enjoy them as much as he enjoyed writing them.

      For years I could barely write a page. I thought I was becoming a virtuoso of smallness while the grief, which is wordless, occupied an ever-greater volume. My friend lived in the estates on the bad side of town. Let’s go to the forest, she said when
