内容简介:
Charles was born an only child in the decade of excess. The 1980s showed him hardworking unmarried parents, a close-knit family, struggle, and love. The decade thereafter yielded much of the same with a blend of teenage experiences that continued to fuel his growth. This book of poetic expression is a product of wanderings within himself and within the experiences of other people. Many of the poems examine life and living in an abstract fashion while others tackle love from differing perspectives. His sentiments are expressed on many subjects but the most attention is paid to the clichA(c)d life struggle. In Charlesa eyes, love represents the purest passage from struggle to happiness. As he explores these themes in his own mind, life reveals itself to be decreasingly complex.
