This collection of poetry features 40 of the 75 poems from my latest book Pomegranate Flesh. You are most welcome to vote and comment and follow me. The poems in this collection show Strider's gift of being able to weave words into creative and surprising configurations. He manipulates words to do his will, taming them with his love for the sounds, rhythms and cadence of language. The result is poetry that is fresh, wild, sensual, and new. His poetry lulls the reader into hypnotic and sensual trances with imaginative renderings of lush landscapes of the mind, body,and nature. Pomegranate Flesh is a wonderful compilation of poems, resonating with a poet's passion for life, love, and language. The Pomegranate is the national fruit and symbol of Armenia. It represents fertility, abundance and marriage. One ancient custom widely accepted in ancient Armenia was performed at weddings. A bride was given a pomegranate fruit, which she threw against a wall, breaking it into pieces. Scattered pomegranate seeds ensured the bride future children. http://www.lulu.com/shop/strider-marcus-jones/pomegranate-flesh/paperback/product-20444424.html http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pomegranate-Flesh-Strider-Marcus-Jones/dp/1291117318/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1390655580&sr=1-1 Content Warning The compilation you are about to read is intended for mature readers due to some sexual content and language.

Romance, hurt, and a hole in the gut. 16 personal poems of mine that nobody has seen, and are based off of my own hurt and personal experiences. Interpret them how you wish. I write in my head a lot of the time, I say tricky things that hardly make sense which is partly why poetry is so hard to write down. I sit and stare at the words I have written trying to figure out how to make it readable, but the thing I like is that it's the words in poetry that sometimes shifts a perspective, not just the meaning behind it. The choice of words or what order they're in, not quite grasping what any of it could possibly mean so you can keep that poem for yourself to interpret it as you wish. I love it. It's using words in the most peculiar way, and twisting them so they melt down into a feeling rather than something you read.

#4 Poetry Books No one said emotions were constant or orderly, well mine isn't. Enter into a spontaneous explosion of emotions that may make you feel depressed or hopeful. It's a roller coaster ride from here. Sit tight, hold on tight and don't get thrown overboard. Thanks to @Aimee21x for the amazing book cover.
