Femina Aeterna

By Robert Benefiel

Femina Aeterna is another full edition of love poems from the author Robert Benefiel. The poems contained in this collection should be considered a companion piece to the book Love Is What You Think It Is. Most of the work presented here was originally written at the same time (with very few exceptions), and were intended as possible pieces to be included in the previous book. However, due to the glut of material written at that time, they were put aside in favor of a flow that had a progression. In this book however, like in love, the author has decided to let love be as sloppy as it wants, recognizing that the pieces here work together better as a whole than dispersed and scattered throughout other books. As a result the work spans many different aspects of love, from traditional to romantic to abstract to straightforward to personal to impersonal to humorous to raunchy. Neither caring how long or short the piece is, if it repeats itself in theme later or not at all, or whether using romantic language or curse words, the work itself tends to build a chain of connections without effort. In this volume the author proves his only intent is to display the many different facets a love poem can take, while continuing to show his own personal affection for love, and the lovers that makes him feel it and want to express it.
