Memoir of the Late Reverend John Pierce (1842)

aIn putting this book together, my process was to create a collection of verses that would tell a story, making it effortless to enjoy and at the same time inviting you, the reader, into a temporary state of emotional being. Successfully doing so has made this book innovatively unique, in that it is a biography, letter, diary, script, and novel, all disguised as poetry. It represents a state of physical, spiritual, and rational sensation, beginning as a description of romantic innocence, and evolves to demonstrate levels of social consciousness, spirituality, physical expression, disappointment, misunderstanding, passionate reconnection, and finally the acredits rolla in light of an epiphany: aDear Love, a!a I hope that you will use this as inspiration to explore your own hidden passions and have the courage to release them creatively in facing emotionally and spiritually charged experiences.a
