Blackbird Poems About Sitting in The Dark romanticizes the catastrophic casualties of naivety and lust. It was written in the shadows of the loneliness, confusion and pain we often experience and seldom share. Suárez shouts about shame and loss, exposes and evokes a spectrum of emotions. Blackbird begins in the garden of ignorant bliss and ends with the departure of a beloved friend into "the light". Readers are set on a journey that starts in the garden and ends in contemplating the promised paradise to come. The in between is a retelling of mishandled moments alchemized, a map from sitting in the dark to walking in the light by esteemed poet Naudy Suárez.
