Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Blood, the Love, and the Uninterpretable is a spectrum of emotions. Each section explores a variety of comfortable and uncomfortable aspects of life, all of them leaning into the uncanny. The first section, “the Blood”, focuses on the “dirtier” parts of life, beginning with the poem titled, “Mud”—which presents the state of dirtiness as a positive rather than a negative. The second section, “the Love”, is much like a series of love letters where every verse seeks honesty and passion. The final section, “the Uninterpretable”, focuses on exactly that– the parts of life that are incapable of being interpreted or explained. Overall, this poetry book seeks to challenge typical patterns of thought and embrace the weird (and sometimes uncomfortable) emotions in life.
