Fears e-bog

An unflinching study of death, Kevin Prufers The Fears invites us to consider what it means to matter.Editor, publisher, and poet Kevin Prufer presents his ninth poetry collection, The Fears, an intimate meditation on storytelling and mortality. Ghostlit by streetlights and filtered through tale and recollection, Prufer examines our fears of loss, death, and obscurity. Narratives are braided together as Prufer manipulates white space to mimic the silence of minds at work on unsolvable problems, how time unravels / endlessly. Here, visions of classical Greece and the trials of ancient Romans coexist with the everydaymemories of a parents death or the loss of a pet. We bear witness as the poet writes to preserve the intricacy of his own mind against the certainty of absence. Exploring what it means to be forgotten and how legacy is preserved through poetry, history books, a mummys index finger, and love letters from the grave, The Fears invites us to consider what it means to matter.
