Crystallized Remnants mingles free-form poetry with shorter offerings of Psaiku-a form of expression based on the ancient poetic form of Haiku...with a twist: Tribes of Earth rejoice As raindrops joined make oceans So too minds of men Whereas Haiku is centered around themes of nature, Psaiku focuses on humans and human nature. Longer, free-form poems, like "Desert Days" and "Vietnam 1," and "You Can't Hide Forever," also use powerful imagery and spare, concise language to reflect on the nature of man-on his psyche. This new collection is as varied and expressive as the author's use of language, making it a must-have for poetry lovers everywhere. "Good poetry should delight you. Great poetry, however, should speak to your soul and press all of your emotional buttons. To be sure, Robert's work does the latter in Crystallized Remnants." Liz Fichera, author of Played and Hooked
