A rebirth of sight : a book of poems

The following project is representative of both my struggles and achievements as a student of creative writing. The poems contained within were developed through a virtual restructuring of my creative process. With the exception of one sonnet and two haiku poems, the remaining creations are free-verse experiments, heavily influenced by the works of James Wright, Robert Bly, and Robert Creeley. My goal for each poem was to connect the verse with those rare and fleeting moments in life that are often overlooked. In order to achieve this goal, I had to venture a little deeper into the realm of both imagination and possibility, without, of course, completely letting go of reality. Essentially, each poem explores two distinct worlds: that which is contained in the heart and that which the heart can never attain. / Department of English
