Walking Onto A Movie Set Uninvited

Descripción

Owning a sense of hiraeth for the town of Austin, Texas is strange. Especially for a poet that is Floridian not a Texan. Writing “Walking on a Movie Set Uninvited” begins as a reprisal. All of the poetry binge written in the city itself is lost. Sans the environs, this poetry was written in hiraeth for a town that was circa 2011 in coffee shops closer to where he calls home.

This work is a microchapbook of poetry. Based loosely off chapbooks of the past, a chapbook is typically a brief sample of work or different works sampled down to about twenty five to thirty pages. A microchapbook is even shorter. This particular one has six poems and stands at about nine pages in length.

The work itself contains some subtle themes of recovery, alienation, rumination, dreams, nightmares, and music that are intended for an mature audience.

But if anything, the poet hopes you retain some appreciation of the city from which this work derives inspiration and a penchant for treating everyone around more kindly.
