The Lonely Year

The Lonely Year is a collection of poetry that seeks to analyze various aspects of the modern human condition. By creating connections and drawing illustrations from disparate sources such as art, theology, philosophy, nature, and love, the poems in this volume express a simultaneous viewpoint of both universal and specific concern.
Early musical, poetic, and literary influences led to the development of the wide variety of styles found in this work-from rhymed couplets to free verse, from satire to painful seriousness. What unites these poems is a consistent theme of identity and innocence.
