If I wrote down what was in my mind Would you read it? Would you learn from it? Would it inspire in you, the same thing that it inspires in me? I will not claim to be transparent, But I will claim to house a mind that is made of glass. Brittle, fragile glass, Housed in a body that refuses to give in. It is this relationship that allows me to write down what is inside of me. It is this relationship, that I give to you, So that one day, you may realize, That even if you are fractured, You will never be broken. In FRACTURES IN A GLASS MIND, Poet Nicholas Sparkman uses an alluring voice with a subtle, soft-spoken delivery to explore the relationship between physical, intellectual, and emotional-body, mind, and soul. He offers this careful balance to you, dear reader, in hopes that you will be at peace while you reassess your greatest struggles.
