The landscapes of our emotions range from the perilous to the serene, and these poems become a companion, a confidant, a source of solace, and a survival guide for the reader. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Shane's unique voice weaves humor and storytelling into his verses. With levity as a setup for power, each poem promises to take you on a zipline of emotions, leaving you both laughing and reflecting on life's miracles. While the freefall through our emotions may at times feel like a hazard, Shane creates a place to land safely without having to sacrifice the impact created by their velocity. These works are flint and tinder, wrestling as a tag team against the cold and dark we sometimes find ourselves lost in. The works contained within do not tell us where to dig for the buried treasure of our hearts... they remind us that the treasure does in fact exist, and they lay bare what is amazing about what our hearts can endure.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 098450317X\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780984503179\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Koyczan, Shane\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Write Bloody Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Write Bloody Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Jun 2024)","offer_id":46080340558021,"sku":"9780984503179","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780984503179.jpg?v=1776036509"},{"product_id":"surviva-a-future-ancestral-field-guide","title":"Surviva: A Future Ancestral Field Guide","description":"\u003cb\u003eAn ambitious, world-envisioning work of Indigenous futurism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince 2015--through a proliferation of forms including sculpture, regalia, film, photography, poetry, painting, and installation--acclaimed multimedia artist Cannupa Hanska Luger has been weaving together strands of a new myth.
