As The Fire Burned Bright: A Collection of Poetry

By Tanner Howsden

Poetry is in many ways a secretive therapist. Done right, it can offer a safe place to work through thoughts one may not fully understand as well as a way to express things which are hard to say in person.

With that in mind, this book is the result of my own personal ongoing literary therapy sessions which I took on in writing a single poem everyday for a few months.. From softer topics like the irritation of getting a song stuck in your head to more intense topics like the fear of watching helplessly as a fire ravaged my hometown, each entry is a peek into a small window of my mind.

Whether or not any of the poems in this collection resonate with you on any level, I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them.
