Pierced by Horn

 

What is pierced by horn exactly?  If you've read even just the beginning of the book, you'll know it's a life philosophy of mine.  Yet it's more to it than that.  I didn't create this life philosophy entirely out of abstract thought.  It's something born out of lived experiences.  I've learned that this is what life is.  Pain and suffering alongside the beautiful and magical things in life.

As my life continues on, 30 years last month, it proves to be even more true.  If you've read to the end of my poetry book, you'll already have a clue as to the most recent painful suffering yet beautifully magical event in my life.  It's funny that such a description could apply to childbirth.  And it's honest that it applies to miscarriage as well.

I have a whole blog and instagram page for that though.  I'll tell you his name, because I want it to reach as far as it can, even if only one person in the world ever reads this.  My son's name is Semaj Sarian H.  You can skip over to my other blog to learn more about him and his instagram page as well.  It will be 4 months this month, so it's a slow task telling the story.

Pierced by Horn is a poetry book with some magical realism thrown in.  Poetry I've collected and placed in specific orders to tell a story to you all as if you were my dearest friends.  It's about love, unrequited, and love returned.  There is a mental health aspect as well.  Too much stigma is placed on anxiety and depression as well as many other mental health disorders.

With my poetry book, I hope to show people that they are not alone.  Not in their lives and love lives going awry.  And not in their pain and suffering because of it.  It is my first book, with content I already had, so it was great pick for my first venture in self-publishing.  Because what I truly make an effort to write all these years, is fantasy novels.  

Alas, I've created a story I feel passionate about again and I will document writing it here on this blog.  As well as other things.  So if you visit, you're welcome to stay awhile and learn about the world of The Singing Bone.
