If We Open Our Eyes the Floods Won't End So Let's Not Do That

By Maté Jarai

'If we open our eyes the floods won't end so let's not do that' is the new poetry collection from Mat Jarai. Featuring a range of free-verse styles, his poems explore identity, existential meaning, love, death, and the absurd. An intriguing blend of the whimsically amusing and darkly affecting, these poems take us on a journey from the seemingly meaningless towards that search for a sense of self in the chaotic and often confusing world. His words are sparse yet lyrical, metaphorically exploring the human psyche and the every-day mundane through animals, monsters, mountains, oceans and outer space. These poems take us to the fringes of reality, conveyed in an often dream-like, illusory state, yet they always bring us back to those raw human emotions that we all face as we navigate our 21st century world.
