Commentary
Pink Crush,
draws from my hobby scores written between 2001 – 2008.
Thematically, its conversation is grounded in the beauty that
the natural environment presents and where the statements veer
into inspiration, these, record contemplation from biblical
readings.
The poems in this collection are presented in various styles :
Abecedarian, Acroustic, Cinquain, Diamente, Fibonacci, Free
Verse, Ghazal, Haibun, Haiku, Limerick, Minute Poem, Sestina,
Shanzi, Sonnet, Stellarenga, Tanka, Waka, zip haiku; and, The
Fold - a genre, the structure for which, I formulated in an
experimental workshop.
