The Final Words of T. Harley
Already born to die, an uneasy pressure has stalked and weighed heavily on a young Terrance Harley since childhood. Born into material abundance, an outsider peering in would gawk at its apparent ease, but the battle of a slow encroaching darkness takes its course in a much different arena. Tending to dramatically inflate his sentiments to myth, Harley, an intelligencia, sees and hears the dance and coos of mother nature. He relishes in the artistic ambiguity of the natural, as well philosophy and the Greek classics. Unfortunately, dwellers outside of that domain consistently push the limits of his psyche with their disrespect and failure to see what really matters. He begins to grow his distaste of the commonplace, and becomes more disenfranchised the more he sees. Slowly but surely, the spark that breathes in his motivations begins to dissipate. His only saviors to an otherwise dull and unattached living, include his friends, family, and his dearest love. All declared with an admiration beyond that of normalcy, their tragic fates swell Harley's darkness into doing the unimaginable with its remnants. With nothing remaining, he comes to write his manifesto riddled with confessions and the last vestiges attached to this mortal coil. Imprinting all his soul can afford on paper, his final act on earth will be to go to the last holdout of worthy beauty, and say good riddance to life.

Avalon Heart
Delve into nearly fifty poems summoned one after another during a creative fever pitch—some historical, some give appreciation to the natural world, others focus on modern follies, some even on Arthurian myth—yet all are striking and give beauty to words otherwise unappreciated. This is not haughty poetry or a fabrication made to sell; these are straight from a clouded heart; their passions stand and speak for themselves through words carefully considered, but moreso felt—for where else could the best of poetry come?
