Description

Unapologetic and direct, soulful and entertaining, Halfway, Where We Meet presents a richly enjoyable experience in poetry from start to finish. If you say there is no beauty in shackles, why do you craft those that bind words, thoughts, restrain blood within the heart, and bind free breath within brave breasts? Excerpt from "Faith of Thugs" Halfway, Where We Meet strives to capture the spark that draws people together and the pressures that tear us apart. In addition, poet Stuart Forrest explores themes of the spiritual struggle, the creative process, and the American madness about race--along with some light and amusing diversions along the way. Combining previously published work with new poems, Halfway, Where We Meet marries classic favorites with heretofore unseen work. Using powerful imagery and masterful rhythm, Stuart Forrest's intricate composition of words will transport the reader to another place. Stuart James Forrest was born in Omaha, Nebraska in 1951. His family moved from Nebraska in 1962. Stuart worked for San Mateo County in California until his retirement in 2012. After retiring, he took several courses in creative writing where he discovered his passion for writing poetry and short stories.
