Hi Everyone,
I’ll cut to the chase: My debut poetry collection is here! You can find it in paperback on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3oS6tWi
This collection is the culmination of over a dozen years of practice, study, and academic training.
I’ve written thousands of poems during that time. I’ll be the first to admit that many were crap. A few were pretty good.
PARTY ANIMALS contains 110+ pages of the absolute best - a concentrated dose of all my poetry has to offer.
Inside, you will find love, pain, hope, and some difficult questions. All the forces that drive us to poetry - I promise they are here in these pages.
Here’s a description that offers a clearer picture:
PARTY ANIMALS is a poetry collection that tackles head-on the conflicting forces of poverty, climate change, religion, and politics.
Divided into three chapters, the work tells a story in verse. Each chapter explicates and expands the premise of what came before:
-Phylogenetics exhumes ancient family history to situate the reader in the context of the past.
-Cladistics takes this context and applies it to present day, manifesting how both cruelty and kindness ripple forward in time.
-Finally, Divergence gazes into the future to discover the metaphysical consequences of our lives and choices, navigating the tension between dogmatic religion and amorphous spirituality to chart a new path forward.
If you’ve enjoyed my work here on Crossbite, I hope you’ll consider picking up a copy and leaving a review on Amazon. It means a tremendous amount to new authors such as myself who are working hard to establish creative credibility. And if you decide to take a pass - know that I still appreciate you and your readership regardless.
Take care. Be well. Keep reading.
Yours truly,
Ethan
