Description
In this, volume 2 of Dark cloud White cloud Dusk Sandstone, we encounter another epic length poem. Much inspired by Homer, Milton and Byron, this poem attempts to give the reader an experience of beauty through words. We often experience beauty from the canvas, or through nature, but this work attempts to send the reader into that state of the sublime through a carefully constructed poesis, or poetic contrivance.
Building on themes from volume 1, this volume also seeks to give some support to those who are experiencing difficulty.
