| Abstract |
This abstract introduces a compelling narrative that explores the intersection of the supernatural, personal identity, and artistic expression through poetry. The author shares their lifelong fascination with the supernatural world, rooted in their upbringing with late-night talk shows delving into paranormal phenomena. However, the supernatural takes a backseat as the author navigates the challenges of personal growth, mental health, and relationships. The author presents poetry as a means of observing and grappling with the indefinable, using language, metaphor, and imagery to achieve moments of self-recognition. The poetry collection takes shape as a reflection of the author's personal experiences, emotions, and obsessions. The author emphasizes the interconnectedness of their affinity for the supernatural with their creative process, acknowledging that these attachments influence their writing and how they process life experiences. |
