Viviscent

By Scott Michael Craig

Viviscent is yet another bright and vivid collection of poetry by Scott Michael Craig shaped by sensation, motion, vulnerability, and wonder, a book that breathes through five distinct realms of experience. These poems move fluidly between intimacy and immensity, between bodily awareness and cosmic imagination. Each section explores a different register of being, including touch, memory, travel, solitude, resistance, transformation, and awe.

The language is lush, precise, and alert, attentive to texture, scent, color, rhythm, silence, and emotional resonance. Moments of stillness dissolve into motion. Quiet perception gives way to eruption. Personal reflection opens suddenly into planetary and galactic scale. The result is a poetic experience that is at once sensual, philosophical, meditative, and expansive.

Viviscent is an exploration of what it means to be fully alive, to feel deeply, to wander attentively, to ache and resist, to dream and drift beyond the self. These poems do not simply describe life, they move inside it, tracing the electric pulse of consciousness as it travels through body, landscape, emotion, and cosmos.

Scott Michael Craig once again displays a remarkable mix of wordplay and wisdom, bringing to light a unique vision of the universe.
