Publisher's Synopsis
Thank you.
For the pain, through which
I grope my way in dazed wakefulness.
The void, where my tongue-tips
catch the essence of a hungering moon.
A compilation of free verses written over the years in various stages of a young woman's life, 'Black Cat' is a journey of self-discovery, awareness and growth.
Each poem is a story culled from an existence well savored, much like a cat's fabled nine lives. There are tales of lust, loss, melancholy, decay and awakening.
Author Shirley Siaton gives her heart, body and soul to the reader bare-bones, with no inhibitions or pretensions.
