Before the 19th century, the Greek word stasis meant sedition. The word revolution did not exist. Exploring the roots of everything he saw around him, James Leaf invites us to consider the origin of art, the uses of conversation, the meaning of solidarity, and the plurality of the self.

In this deeply honest and often hilarious collection, anxiety isn’t a villain to conquer—it’s a character we get to know, laugh with, and eventually walk beside. With 180 original rhyming poems, this book invites you into a journey of breath, bravery, and beautifully imperfect healing. Some poems will make you laugh out loud. Some will sit quietly beside you in your most anxious moments. All are written to remind you: You are not broken. You are becoming.

A collection of poems by the author W .H. Benjamin. Ranging from epic poems and love poems to poems about loss.
