    About this ebook

    Eclipse on Joypiter traces an emotionally turbulent journey as love steadily obscures reasoning. The book is an anthology of poems that progressively outlines the casting of ardour’s ominous shadow upon a bright burning ring of hope. The tone of the writing develops from a keen yearning that gradually intensifies in depth, reaches a sharp degree of passionate desperation and culminates in complete darkening.
