Sobre IBD

Passage of Something is an innovative collection of forty-nine poems and prose poems. It offers a portrait of humanity’s intense, bizarre, and often troubled relationship with time and place. Frequently giving a slant on other wider issues, it also injects incisive wit in surprising contexts, and it could be considered to be a portal into the author’s very personal view of the contemporary world.
