Book Description
When Butterflies Howl and Hyenas Kiss is a collection of 21 poems that invites you into a world where the boundaries between the personal and the universal blur—a space where the sensory, emotional, and contemplative converge. Dualities such as dark and light, life and death, pleasure and pain, stagnation and flow, are interwoven throughout. The verses gently nudge you to confront the apparent contradictions inherent in the nature of existence, offering glimpses of reconciliation and hope. Seamlessly blending deeply personal experiences with broader philosophical reflections, the collection emerges from an authentic voice, unburdened by any preconceived intentions of writing or publishing. At its heart, the rhymes invite you to pause and reflect on your own journey. If you seek poetry that lingers, sparking quiet contemplation and emotional resonance, this one is for you! Let’s pause for a moment To breathe into the gap Between two letters, Two words, two notes unwrapped Herein where the magic rests Like in the synaptic clefts When an axon lights, before a dendrite strikes Lies the story of our lives.
