Abstract
The poems in this manuscript are presented in a loose narrative arc depicting a process of self-actualization and personal discovery inspired by a diversity of private and public events. A large portion of the poems were derived from the oral dictation of personal journal entries into Dragon voice recognition software, which often completely rewrote the source text. These texts explore a less personal approach to the concerns of the original journal entries, allowing me new perspectives on themes that include masculinity, love, sexuality, war, social violence and planetary conservation.
