These poems speak to struggle stemming from both the internal and the external-a collection deeply rooted in the human experience, life philosophies, identity politics, faith, shame, pride, trials, and triumph.

These poems speak to struggle stemming from both the internal and the external-a collection deeply rooted in the human experience, life philosophies, identity politics, faith, shame, pride, trials, and triumph. The common thread throughout is identity and asks: Who are we? Why are we made to sometimes feel "sub-human?" How does this feeling impact our overall wellness from a physical, emotional, social, and spiritual point-of-view? And most importantly, how do we strive to see the light in people and in ourselves, despite such turmoil-this dichotomy between light and dark. EARLY PRAISE: "Never before have I been so taken by onomatopoeia-do not simply read this collection, but instead listen. - C. M. Tollefson, Cathexis Northwest Press "As if Coltrane and Marcus Aurelius shared their secrets, Carroll's meditations express free and bold cathartic verse." - Samuel Griffin, founder, The Esthetic Apostle "This marvelous collection navigates the desires of humanity with rhythm, repetition, and grace, demonstrating an ambitious orchestration of form on the page." - J. David, poetry editor for Flypaper Magazine
Autorenporträt
Michael B. Carroll Jr. is a graduate of West Chester University of Pennsylvania with a Bachelor of Science degree in Professional Studies (Health Science/Psychology dual minor). He is a native of Philadelphia, PA and his poems have appeared in publications such as Maudlin House, Wingless Dreamer, and Cathexis Northwest Press. Carroll's work was recently showcased in Kosmos Quarterly: journal of global transformation as a "Featured Poet." He refers to his greatest aspirations in life as M&M Dreams, which represents his undying love for music and the practice of medicine. Music continues to inspire him to live, love and create, passionately-while his desire to practice medicine keeps him emotionally connected to his humanity. When not writing poetry, songs, or studying medicine, Carroll enjoys spending time with his family and friends, and pretending he's a part of Buffy's crime-fighting, "Scooby Gang."
