Abstract Mind of a Poet: The Journey

By L S McKay

In his first book, Abstract Mind of a Poet, The Beginning, L.S. McKay gave his readers an initial taste of his unique perspective on life, love, nature, and people. In this, his second book, Abstract Mind of a Poet, The Journey, he guides us on the path that exposed him to these insights. He begins with the poems and prose of youth, inexperience and innocence of brightest day through the disillusionment of war and broken dreams that yield the dusk of careless abandon and wild risks with nothing to lose. McKay's verse and verbiage then submerge the reader in the depths of despair and desperation, a glimpse of the dark endured by those ensnared by death and loss into hopelessness, guilt, and addictions. Finally, we soar aloft again with the poet as he fights for life and a new dawn that looms on the horizon for those who reach a hand up for help. Sometimes funny, often raw and real, always thought provoking, McKay's offering of prose and poetry is at once a basically simplistic and inspirationally complex reflection of his unusual life. Step along the path to explore the Abstract Mind of a Poet, The Journey.
