Head Trauma: Sonnets and Other Poems (Paperback)

Head Trauma: Sonnets and Other Poems Book Description

"Head Trauma: Sonnets and Other Poems" is Emmy-winning writer and producer Gary David Johnson's first book of poetry. Though he has published short stories in the horror-fantasy genre, poetry remains his passion. Until recently, however, creating the "perfect poem" seemed to be just out of his grasp. In 2005, Johnson realized that his poetic compositions were far from his former idealistic definition of the perfect poem. He wasn't even attempting to write a perfect poem; he was expounding, philosophizing, meditating, and reminiscing, but he wasn't writing what he had long ago defined as "poetry." Poetry requires discipline, and one of the definitions of discipline-in Johnson's dictionary, anyway-is the sonnet. With determination renewed, he set out to write one. After rewriting, polishing, and rewriting again, Johnson felt that he had at last found his true poetic voice. Johnson's poetry is immortalized in "Head Trauma," His hope for you is that you enjoy it and maybe find the inspiration to discover your own "perfect poem" somewhere along the way.
