Black Sunday

Black Sunday
"Black Sunday" is the newest work I've been writing for 2007. Like all my other books, it will be self-published, and unlike most of my previous poetry books, it will be for sale on my website soon as I finish writing it.

"Black Sunday" was originally a poem I wrote on Easter Sunday before going to Sunday School, due to waking up in a bad mood that had carried itself over from the day before. After writing the poem, I decided to combine it with other poems I had written for a book I was working on, then called "Saignement" (which is French for bleeding). It was based off a poem I wrote ("Saignement") about a cutter who ends up finding peace and redemption through Christ instead of a razor. Saignement (the poem) still appears in Black Sunday, as well do other poems that were going into Saignement (the book); but not all will appear in Black Sunday.

The book will contain poems touching on more "somber" and "darkish" themes than any of my previous books have in the past. This is the most dominate theme for this collection of poetry. I have kept putting off writing it, out of respect for those who read my work---who might be turned off by it if they were to take it the wrong way, but the more I continue doing that, the more it is being pressed on my spirit to write it; therefore I am now following that direction.

A lot of the poems are about my personal life, but not all of them. Just because I wrote the majority of the poems from a first-person perspective doesn't mean they are all about me. I wrote them using this perspective to make my work more personal to the reader, when my work is read or heard. I am very aware of the power of words and the influence they carry, and that played a dominate role in the perspective writing of this book. This book is not meant to appeal to every one who reads it, and I don't expect it to. It will however, speak to those who are going through things in life that I have and will write about.

I haven't forgotten about my book, "Apocalypse", I am still writing it when Yahweh tells me the things to write in it. I felt lead by the Spirit to put this book on hold for now, and when He tells me its time to release it I will.
