Fractured is a collection Art and Poetry about survival. Surviving Suicide, Love, Control and Deception from the malls of the Middle East to the beaches of the Caribbean to corridors of Wall Street. It will make you laugh out loud, cry and bristle with anger. Addressing the old issues of death and the male/female paradigm as well as the new issues of the 1% and government accountability, each Poem has been paired with a painting specifically painted by the author to accompany that poem. The pairings are designed to enhance the emotions engendered by the poems.The book is divided into two parts with each part serving a different purpose. Part one contains the collection of Poems and Paintings, whilst Part 2 provides insight into the rationale behind the penning of each poem.Fractured takes the readers on an emotional roller coaster as they crisscross the globe and voyeuristically experience the bitter and sweet moments of life.
