It has been said that there are only seven stories to tell: overcoming the monster, rags to riches, voyage and return, the quest, comedy, tragedy and rebirth. 7 is a collection of each of these different ways to tell a story, using the medium of poetry to entertain the reader, with an intuitive contemplation of life and observations. There is a graceful feel to the work; sometimes written with humor, sometimes purely carnal and occasionally with a tinge of sadness, it is a book which will open wounds and then lovingly tend them again. With offering such as the thoughtful, ‘Men Like Me’ or the short and snappy ‘A Kiss’ you will find that each one tells its own story and each one can stand alone, while still contributing to the overall feel of the book. This is a stunning collection, written in a thought-provoking hue, by a man who has a distinct and easy style. If you love poetry and enjoy being immersed in the thoughts of someone who has experienced life in all its raw forms, then 7 is something you should not miss. Review "I was engaged. This involvement increased as the diversity of the collection grew, which, in turn, augmented the complexity of the book as a whole. As I read on, the book meandered through somewhat traditional love poems, minimalistic pieces, poetic prose, rhyme, and even what you could call a short story... My favorite, however, was the final poem, 'What May Come, Will Come.' It stands on its own, while also serving as a gorgeous finale..." --OnlineBookClub "Antonio Hopson spins gentle legends and quiet love stories. From biker goddesses to mythical tricksters, from feuding winds to debauched taverns, the subjects of 'The Vernal Equinox of Death and Kisses and Other Short Stories' reveal the author's romantic enchantment with the world around him, even when it's at its grittiest." -Dru Pagliassotti, Editor in Chief, The Harrow #poem #poetrsofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poetryporn #kindle #poet #poets
