    Embedded: A Book of Poems

    About this ebook

    Most of the poems in this book are about self reflection and recovering from pain. The author experienced a psychiatric hospitalization that broke up his engagement and created doubt about life itself. Although there is evidence of loss in some of the work, there is also resilience. Accepting the fate of experience consoles the reader and brings hope that all will eventually work out.

      Love is a word which covers a variety of feelings; I have used it purposely, as I wish to include them all. Love as an emotion – which is what I am speaking about, for love ‘on principle’ does not seem to me genuine – moves between two poles: on one
