Elucidation.

So coming along are some of my first "poetic works" . . .
I dabbled in poetry first before I commenced my songwriting expertise, which came along shortly after.
Personal note--around the time I was 14, I encountered this creative uprising in my life, what Friedrich Nietzsche would baptize the "Dionysian" as I have come to understand it, where certain negative influences or instances that occur spark "creation". What follows is the "Apollonian," expression of what any teenager is capable of fabricating into any sort of literary style--that is, the afflictions, complaints, and realizations dawning on me during the end of 2008.
Another note of importance . . . The male pronoun behind the "he" and "him" who is constantly referenced to throughout these works symbolizes my personal notion of nostalgia for childhood and buoyant past, which is clearly realized as a loss in my writings.
