Description

There's immediacy, deliberateness and a sense of finality to what is written with ink. Then again, in the poet s hand, the inked word does far more than just write: it is the mind s eye, paints portraits, frames landscapes, freezes the instant, and even stops Time. Ink Dries presents many such finely crafted and sharply etched pictures, descriptions and moods raw and anguished, exploratory and euphoric, calm and contemplative that have an aura of honesty and truth in them, taking shape even as the ink dries. A collection of English poetry, Ink Dries brings a wealth of verse on the rains and rain-fed vistas, the euphoric joys resultant from bird-watching and butterflying, romance and heartbreak and that basic inescapable sense of angst that imprisons every writer.
