Memento Mori: Poems (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780595678655)

If you're looking for inspiration, escape, or just poetic entertainment, you've come to the right place. Memento Mori's poems are honest, simple and beautifully crafted. Their honesty gives them force, and their simplicity makes them accessible. There is no wondering, no confusion, no searching for a message. Some poems will thrill you as you read them, others will work slowly into your heart, and still others will call you back time and time again to revisit them.

Memento Mori offers something for everybody. The newcomer will find they "get" these poems without having to struggle, while the veteran will enjoy discovering the secret treasures hidden within them.

In a time when poetry seems to be more about what is not said than what is, Memento Mori gets back to the basics by combining the delicate beauty of poetry with the fine art of storytelling. Memento Mori: in Latin it means "remember your mortality." Life is short-it's time to read and feel the poetry.
