Gnome: Book I: Pain

By Lumarvens Alexander

GNOME - by definition, your eyes may have glanced over this title and remember those dwarfish-looking garden & lawn ornaments with long beards and pointed hats. Historically, a gnome is a mythical creature and diminutive spirit in Renaissance magic and alchemy. An ageless and often deformed being who lives in the earth and usually guards gold, treasure, and other valuable objects.

Fast-forward to today its symbolic meaning states a person who works by using their mind, but does not talk to, and is not known by the public.

For this book, gnome is defined as a statement encapsulating a general truth; a maxim. This collection of poems or sonnets (whatever you want to call them), has gone under much scrutiny by the author and may have never been published.

In a world where it gets harder day by day to speak the truth, one inevitably must go through trials and tribulations, pitfalls and downfalls, chaos and confusion, worry and indetermination, obstacles and stumbling blocks resulting in so much pain.

He who feels it, knows it. Pain is such a beautiful emotion and one of life's greatest teachers. Success stories usually spend a hefty chunk of time focusing on what drove the individual, and how many times they got knocked down before they landed a hit.

The famous author, 'Curtis J. Jackson, ' once said, "Joy wouldn't feel so good if it wasn't for pain." This book comprises 84 poems themed from the subtitle "Pain."
