Book excerpt: I want to first say thank you for taking the time to consider reading my book of video game poetry. I believe all writing is an art-form, and I must wield that creative spark. Video game literature has existed for years; however, it has yet been fully recognized as the literary art-form that it is. It is often flippantly swatted away, like an unfamiliar pet that you dare not take a chance on. Within my poetry, I seek to show how video games (and poetry), can be an effective tool of us understanding and coping with the insanity of today’s modern world. With each poem, I strive to tell a story. Often the focus of my poetry is that of a person who is marginalized; they are often seen a monstrous, or a pariah because of their differences. I seek to answer the question: “What does it mean to be human?” Is it our actions, our thoughts and heart? Or is it how others see us, we shape our reality to meet those expectations? Video games are a universal way of doing this. Please enjoy my book of poems, and I hope it touches your heart.
