Light Square Dark Box is a collection of 41 poems that include love, fatherhood, memory, mortality and the beauty of ordinary life.
Through four sections Joshua Priel reflects on the people and experiences that shape, from childhood selves we leave behind to the families we create as well the passing of time. Moments as simple as holding hands or sitting together on a Sunday evening become reflections.
Balancing tenderness, vulnerability and sometimes humor, the collection explores the fear of losing those we love and the hope that a piece of us remains after we're gone.
A collection for anyone who has ever wished time would slow down, held someone a little longer, or wondered what they might leave behind.
