Description

"from the water's edge & other poems" is Belizean-American poet Jason S. Price's fifth book of poetry and it is a personal achievement because the poems render the heart bare. These poems are a collage, a multiple of voices and issues. For example, the poem "I Dream Through Slaves" is a faith rooted poem that comes from a legacy of pain: "Of slaves, I am its legacy - I dream through / Slaves because no matter how you oxidize / The green" haunts still; while the poem "Do Not Let Time" deals with time as purpose: "spend it, use it, work it in stride"; and the poem "A Space In My Skin" addresses the theme of longing, of missing. These themes and each of these poems, along with the others, speak a fundamental truth, a truth from experience, from observation, and most certainly, a truth from the heart. They are creative works of art that individually demands attention to style and rhythm; however, each poem is a reach, an insight and with a thoughtfulness that makes them not only works of art, but lessons of art. Lessons that speak to our lives, our common good, and with hopes for a more peaceful future. ~~~ one tiny grace may these few lines set you free - for a moment, a time or a period from the lies your intuition feels - may these open lines let you see you are much more than just that - a pain, some hurts, that curse - may these tearful lines let you know there's a path that leads to freedom; there's a love that includes yourself - how meager, small, insignificance you may read between these lines - may this poem be the tiny grace you seek to gain your salvation -
