A collection of poems of love, loss, betrayal, and survival. These words will take you on a journey to darkness and hopelessness but in the end the damaged soul rises, becomes smarter, more in charge and finds the self-worth needed so the same mistakes in love do not repeat...

Poetry in one form or another has been around almost as long as language. We have used it to communicate our joys and heartbreaks, our victories and our losses. But fear has also been a constant companion, and our ghost stories and monsters stretch their claws back into history as far as the eyes can see. The Configuration Discordant is an exploration of not only that fear, but of our global journey through poetry. One hundred poems exploring 75+ forms of poetic expression from the humble haiku to the mysterious Qasida.
