Inhaltsangabe

Speaking With A Broken Mirror is a collection of introspective poems reflecting the images observed in our daily surroundings and examines the aspects of our environment like a jagged piece of a broken mirror. It reiterates the things ignored or forgotten that connect us, and invites us to feel the rhythm of a pervasive spirit. Some of the poems were previously published in a limited edition, Misty- Poems from Email to Diane. This exceptional compilation reveals an expressive theme of connectedness with tones of pensive shadows and humorous light. Author Bio: ABOUT THE AUTHOR-John Rolens was raised in St. Louis, Missouri, the youngest child of three in a blue collar family. After having served three years in the Marine Corps, he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Southeast Missouri State University with a double major - Literature and Philosophy.

John currently resides in the small community of Spanish Lake, about a 40 minute bike ride from the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers.
