The Quiet Cool is a collection of poems with themes that range from abuse to alienation to love and courage. The author utilizes proven styles, such as sonnet, ballad and free verse, to express the universal subjects of child and spousal abuse, drug addiction, alienation, regret, and social chaos. From these dim shadows emerge love, friendship, courage and the illumination of the soul's essence in the eye's perception. Ultimately, freedom from the past is gained in the author's journey through time. The triumph of spirit over despair is revealed in confessional and metaphysical wanderings. These eighty-two poems are photographs and paintings of a world, at times mad and cruel and chaotic, and at times filled with wonderment and compassion -- a world traveled by many of us through the maze of life.
