Omschrijving

Unpack in fluent lexical currency

The thousands of words trapped in imagery

Compress them to the esthetic and concise

And write and hope the effort will suffice.

Chapbook #3 is the third and conclusive book in the Chapbooks series.

The collection features 15 original poems and an essay. The essay, titled "The Emaciation of Intellect" discusses the means by which the modern world loses its intellectual character, and it offers a possible (even if unlikely) solution to the problem. The poems that follow are united in the subject matter of a continuous shifting of the speaker character's sense of hope concerning the fate of the world as they understand it, laden with social, political, and psychological motifs; aware of a spiritual reality yet just shy of esoteric. As is the norm for the Chapbooks series, all poems are written in form.

Written for an educated audience, Chapbooks #3 concludes the series with a somber yet hopeful tone intended to explore, analyze, and communicate by means of lyrical narrative. It is preceded by Songlets (#2) and Ambition, in Vain (#1).

Autumn leaves trembling in a stuttering wind,

A blurred image flickering on stained screens,

Leisurely though loath, listlessly unwind

Against a dome the color of their dreams.
