Catastrophic Conclusions: Poems For A Tiny Niche Audience

Everything in my life

Is a series of

Doom piles

Shifting

Precariously.

Hoarded, Carla Coles

A new collection by a consummate artist of the short poem genre: Carla Coles writes of the cataclysmic nature of modern life in events both personal and universal.

Change.

All my settings have been changed.

I needed help navigating the changes

And for once in my life I listened.

I listened to my body when it needed rest.

I listened to my doctors.

I listened to my friends

And I listened to my therapist.

And I listened when we were mucking through a session and she told me I jump to catastrophic conclusions.

I heard her and responded with, ＂That’s a great name for a book.＂ - face palm -

Yes, friends, I have a lot of work to do.

Thanks for taking this journey with me.
