Enigma: A Collection of Poems

By Liam A. Flin

Life is wonderfully enigmatic. Love, death, heartache, jubilation, successthese are just some of the most mysterious aspects of it. My belief is that poetry is our best method of exploring these phenomena, and poetry should not be limited to any one feeling in particular. This is the poetry book for all emotions. This is the poetry book for the despairing, for the creative, and for the contented. This is the poetry book for all of lifes enigmas.
