Preoccupations is a creative work dealing with the subject of existence. It takes the form of a collection of poems and creative essays that deal with the subject in one way or another. There are a variety of subjects used as vehicles to pursue the overall theme, ranging from groundhogs and the desire to become one, to drug and alcohol dependency. Preoccupations also deals with the subject of death, specifically the early deaths of the speaker's friends. There are a number of questions asked in Preoccupations, few of which are able to be answered. This is an accurate reflection of the thought process of the speaker. / Master of Fine Arts
