About the Book

"Oh, for Muse of Truth That we should descend into the darkestHells of our Own Inventions"The poem above is cited at the beginning of a song by Shinedown titled, "How Did You Love?" Yet, this is not a love song, rather, a song which forces us to ask, "How did I live my life?" "Was I a good person?" "Did I show love to others?" or, more importantly, "Did I create my own personal hell?"The poems in this collection are among my personal favorites. The themes vary slightly, but all are about love. Love has always been the driving force of my own life and while it has at times produced immense pain, it has been worth the journey.The title "Muse of Truth" was chosen because that is what I have always sought - truth. The older I get, the more I find that the biggest truth about life, our role on this planet, and our happiness is tied to love.Yet, far too often, we create our own hell, our own heartaches, by failing to show real love. Instead, we often pursue our own agenda, with our own selfish desires convincing us that we are loving, when in fact, we are doing just the opposite. Love is a concept which many try to define yet continues to elude most. If we must apply a definition, the best I have yet to find is in the Bible at 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8. It reads,"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous. It does not brag, does not get puffed up, does not behave indecently, does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails."I have learned over the years though, a way to further condense this: Love is Respect.When we respect someone, our love for them grows; when they start to act in ways that cause us to lose respect, our love fades. This is because respect is the foundation for love; without respect, there can be no love. Yet, as with love, respect takes time to cultivate, which is why it is impossible to really love someone we have just recently met. Sure, we can have instant passion, lust, and in time, respect and love may grow, but more often than not, both quickly fade.In this book are found the following poems, some of which are previously published.ADDENDUM TO 911ACRONYMSOFFICE ASSISTANTSSMOKINGCELL'S BELLSSEXTHE MORNING AFTEREATING AND SHITTINGLIFE?I HATE POETSTHE LAD WHO WANDERED TOO CLOSE TO THE MOONWASHED ASHORESEASIDE STRONGHOLDS"FREE" BIRDSROAD-KILL ALIVEPERCEPTIONLAB RATSSEE GULLSTREESBATS, BEES, AND HONEYDEW TREESA POEM ABOUT THE STORY REQUESTEDTHE PENCIL LEADTHERE WAS A GUYSOLE-MATESPAPER FLOWERSMODERN LOVE?LITTLE KISSESA SINGLE BLUE ROSEUNFORGIVEN KNOTTHE COCKROACH AND THE CRAWFISHTHE WONDERFUL LIFEI DON'T BELIEVE IN LOVETHE TALL TREES, UNDER WHICH, WE GREWYOU INSPIRE MEWE'RE BORN, WE DIETHE SOULMATEHOPE AND DEJECTIONI WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN GOOD FOR YOUTHE TROUBLE WITH THUNDERSNOOPY FANS ARE GRANDCAUSE AND EFFECTSOLSBURY HILL AHEADNEARLY KISSEDI WOKE UP ALONEANGUISHFINDING MY MUSEWANTED AND NEEDEDESTA CONTIGOTHINGS WE DOLOVE WITHOUT RESTRAINTMOURNING BREATHPARADOXWHAT DID THEY SEE?JUST A KISS?REGRETBROKEN HIGH HORSEONCE WE KNEW EACH OTHERKISSI HATE YOUOUR SONGSON DYINGFlawed
