Brutified

By Robert Benefiel

Brutified is a collection of poetry written by the author Robert Benefiel. The poems contained within it are from a larger cache of poems written in 2019. The pieces themselves range from narrative to abstract, bibliographical to fictionalized, allowing for a fuller range of expression and voice. What each piece carries is the idea of surviving the brutality of the world, others, and even one's self, in hopes of gaining insight and retaining one's compassion. Whether the piece is addressing the idea of finding one's own art at a junk store, or stumbling across a love note written before, but after, a lover has left them, or even watching a young midget be chased through the mall, the author never ceases to try and present the emotion and meaning at the core of each piece in a blatant yet subtle way.
