Requiem in Rhyme 

If you’re looking for a window into human existence, a full spectrum of emotion, and a flair for musical flow, this poetry collection provides a completely unique experience. Oxford commas need not apply.Requiem in Rhyme is the author’s debut collection of poems written over almost two decades. The poems themselves meditate on universal topics: depression, mental health, suicidal ideation, substance abuse, and insomnia. The project has been described as poetry written in a hip-hop style cadence.The book is approachable even for those with minimal poetry experience. But it also features elaborate nuance and diction manipulation to satisfy deep-diving poetry afficionados. Certain selections are a bit of a gut-punch, but others will bring a smile to your face, and laughter to your heart. It was written from the soul and edited with the mind.
