This is a joy ride
A great writer or poet when writing from their soul captures the emotions of their reader. Who either long for that emotion or identify with it. The photos are a great addition to the narrative.

Stunning. Raw. Genuine. 10/10
Explore the depths of love and loss, and the pain therein. Gorgeous wordplay, thrilling, and definitely worth the price! I’ll be rereading this in the near future. Note to the author: Looking forward to reading more of your work! I very much enjoy the inner workings of your mind.
distinctly beautiful (if slightly heartbreak heavy)
the poetry is not, as the author describes, awful—though i personally question a few choices in conventions, i will defer to the author and assume they are intentional and done with poetic license, as it is possible that mike taylor knows what he’s writing and how it will affect the experience to which he is exposing you. and i would caution that it is not suitable for children (including, if not especially the adult kind). each poem is rather to the point and some of it graphic, but in its short lines, you’ll undoubtedly feel the feels the author was likely feeling (it’s a lot of “feel”, i know, but you’ll see) when writing. for some of them, it’s inspiring, for some thrilling, for many loving, for others enraging, and for most heartbreaking. and all of it very relatable as part of the human condition. definitely worth reading with an open mind. and enjoy the lovely colorful photos as well! they are well-placed and contribute nicely to the book! i look forward to a hard copy in the future!!
