Postlude to the End of

By J Parker Marvin

Composed over a two-month period between his mother's decision to enter hospice and the burial of her ashes, Postlude to the End of is conceptually, simply a diary of mourning. Through its composition with exploded lines and fractured syntax, this collection interiorizes into a visual and verbal hyperventilation of emotion. While mourning the loss of a parent may be a familiar theme, rather than just elegize through descriptive and emotional language, this collection attempts to replicate the chaotic synaptic and physiological processes of coping with deep loss.
