Chapbook...(so far)

One Small Kingdom includes a collection of poems with a strong voice. The poems are created with purpose and potential lessons. The chapbook raises ideas of how to essentially keep your head above water. The poems contrast with reality and surreal scenery creating its own world. The voice is consistent throughout by mixing the collection of poems by creating a theme. This theme is striving for change and advice while beating the odds of uncertainty. Many characters emerge representing people or unconscious thoughts in one’s life. Metaphors create mental images to understand the physical and emotional world that we live in. The author purposefully entwines her work for a sole purpose of proposing something different for everyone. The chapbook promotes the fight and change in trials in life that come.
