Novice

Novice is a collection of prose poems that all revolve around the theme of the young person making sense of and embarking on the adult world. It is also a collection about finding one's own vocation and purpose in life. The poems range from getting drunk for the first time to seeing a homeless person for the first time to witnessing a man sliced in half in an elevator accident to reading my poems out loud for the first time to an audience and being thrilled by the experience.
