i dream of peach seeds (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999527757)

The poem is a world on its own that reflects the depth of human universality. By nature, it moves the reader to inner reaches of their own feelings and identity. In his latest collection, Elias Miller takes the reader on ten years of his journey, condensing his reality into poetic points of insight, emotion, and thought, and presenting them with a continued love of sound and rhythm. He explores themes characteristic of middle-age as well as the search for meaning in an increasingly materialistic society. His is the darker voice of Generation X, of latch-key kids raised on TV, embodying the absence of guidance in an ever-changing world, post-truth, post-faith, post-understanding, resulting in a brand of feelings-based solipsism. These poems reflect the dark spots of his mind now open to daylight. Read them out loud for the full experience.
