About the Book

In this small book, I try to encompass different moods and experiences. I focus on the things that excite me, and, also, on the things that give me pause and cause me to wonder about my world. The themes in the series on experience, are based on the human condition: in poems like “Homeless in Herald Square,” and “The Acts of Humankind,” and inner reflection: in poems like “Escape,” and “Death.” The themes in the series based on communication, include everyday news that is distributed through news media outlets: in poems like “The News,” and human interaction: in poems like “The Silent Customer.” The themes on love and nature are based on personal encounters, in poems like, “I Still Don’t Know Her Name,” and a love of nature, in poems like “These Trees.”

About the Author

I am a high-school student studying in Brooklyn, New York. I started writing poetry at the age of 12 years old. I continue to express myself through poetry. For years, I have been fascinated by the Asian culture. I constantly listen to Japanese, Korean, and Chinese music and one of my favorite hobbies is watching Asian dramas. This Asian influence can be felt within my poetry. The literature written within this book expresses my own abstract nature and reveals experiences of a more personal nature. I hope this book helps you to find the next step in your life. I hope it helps you to find your own Nirvana.
