Abstract Details

2015, Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing, Youngstown State University, Northeast Ohio Master of Fine Arts (Creative Writing).
This collection of work is meant to portray the humanity of poetry. Humans, for the most part, are not always graceful. That said, poetry is not always graceful. Sometimes it deals with life, with death, with love and loss and home. Sometimes it deals with bugs, with confusion, with clarity. "Pocketful Confessions" is meant to embody all of these, because sometimes poetry trips over its own feet. Sometimes it falls up the stairs. Sometimes it can't catch a break because sometimes humanity can't catch one. It's a pocketful of confessions, because sometimes you don't have enough to fill a paper bag, and that's okay.
