Parsifal Provides The Poetry
All written between 1985 between 2010.
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to this exciting new book that was written back ion the early stages of my career in the late nineteen eighties and through the nineteen ninties. There may be a few poems scattered through from the two thousands, up until twenty ten when I had started writing and decided to publish my second book, The Return Of Parsifal. This book is a collection of mood swings from soul and music to seasonal and earthy senses in real life, heart felt circumstances, that have directly related relevance to me in some form or fashion. It is a collection of what my heart felt and soul endured to come up with in written thought of this time period. This depicture is the creatitivity of the circumstances of this book and should be read lightly and taken to heart only if you dare. It is seemingly crazy when you sit down at night, when most of these were actually written, after my jobs and in the various stores and shops and sometimes I was unemployed and trying to understand what I actually wanted in life and whether I could actually make a career or fulltime job out of writing. But nevertheless I just plodded along writing a page or two each night or so it seems now when I have finally got around to putting this early work on display for the readers of my website in these more modern days. It is all relative from day to day and work to work, in how the mind thinks and reacts to various and different sensitive subjects and what is playing on my mind through life circumstances and how that reflects in the final outcome and writing of the work. This is to which the poetry evolves and comes about into some form of logical continuity. Poets are naturally creative and as poetry is one of the major or finer arts of the literary world, that means self pursual or an endeavour to succeed. Poetry is different to writing for a novelist or an artist who paints a picture, but nevertheless once again the poet tells a story by painting a picture through flowing words and creative thoughts, with that reason in his or her mind. Mine in this case is where I understand what I am like, how I feel and what I expect to be read as to how the words run down the page from my pen in the various continuities of thought and ever loving passion and desire to be read in the self related and reflected idea of creating meaning and desire to be understood. In the true context of the self related and relfected thoughts of the percieved understanding on what is right or wrong, to be written and write along the line, down the page and into the hearts and minds of the readers. This book, like Rhymes Forever, Cruises Along to follow and the other five or six books that run and range in this thought pattern and series of wanting to make a name for myself and to try and reach a market that offers a right minded thinking and perspective for those who have gone down the wrong path like I did and wanted to get their lives right and travel the right road of life again, but in the meantime the walk has taken us, me and you along many different roads and walks of life, which have all been a learning curve, for the understanding of different experiences and reasons why we have lived and not died and how we can learn from some of those near death experiences to travel a bit more safely and try to stay sane to live the life of longetivity that God has really wanted us to walk and live. It is not a quick and then a dead end road, but one of a long and thorough learning experiece to stay alive for however long we can maintain this gift of life that God has given us. Please enjoy this my new book created from what seems long ago to digest and take your fancy for that time period, for yourselves. Please Enjoy. Darel.
