F0r +h3 B1rds Poems in 140 ch4r4c+3rs 0r l3ss: (For the Birds Poems in 140 Characters of Less) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781530965090)

Passionately written and perfectly crafted, Torrance Stephens has adapted the use of Twitter and extracted this collection of poems he has actually tweeted over the past two years - all within the limit of 140 characters or less, thus the title of this collection. But what is certain, is the emotion and anger and frustration -- with people, politics, television watching, mainstream news media, society and all that makes us less intuitive, perceptive, insightful, and sagacious as we could be, with all of the information at our convenience -- is clearly communicated by the author. Stephens's poems help us to view life through a different lens. In "F0r +h3 B1rds Poems in140 ch4r4c+3rs 0r l3ss" (For the Birds - Poems in 140 Characters or Less) he offers meditations on what it must feel like to exist in a world where one feels they are misunderstood. A time in which many refuse to notice beyond their individual existence for being so preoccupied with mindless self-absorbed and narcissistic celebrity twaddle (that has no bearing or impact on their real world existence). In this collection, be prepared, this is hostile poetry caused by distress, angst and facing ignorance continuously.
