Themes that cut deep. Images you can’t shake.
This collection is Wade’s poetic record of a world in flux. Where pandemics disrupt daily rituals, where nature goes on indifferent to human fear, and where history folds in on itself in unexpected ways.
Inside you’ll find:
The Pandemic Unmasked – Poems that capture the claustrophobia, fear, and strange humor of living through COVID-19.
Human Struggles in Public and Private – From students returning to masked campuses to strangers adrift in their own cities.
Nature, Time and Mortality – Haikus, weather poems, and meditations on cycles of decay and renewal.
Playfulness with a Razor Edge – Wordplay, cultural mash-ups, and surreal imaginings that pull you in and then twist.
It’s a book you can open anywhere and land on a moment worth reading twice.
