Beautiful Ends

A collection of 81 poems, Beautiful Ends looks at ends through the lens of being, a beautiful necessity of every conclusion. Each poem-whether free verse or prose, rhyming or simply rhythmic-pokes at convention's fabric, gasps for reason, or, when it can be done, finds the humor in it all. Written and compiled over the course of seven years, this poetry may be described as a record of collisions, a personal record of each time thought fell short and the world felt too wrong. Expression forced to step in rather than just survey the wreckage, created redemptively from whatever was left.
