Within these pages you will hear the melodic voices that belong to a generation of writers that aren't afraid to keep things simple. Each piece is delivered with a deep appreciation for history and high hopes for the future. The artists behind the words open their bright eyes and look to you, the world, with each carefully crafted line, in an effort to make sense of that which has no explanation. No explicit definition apart from form and format. No limits but for the turning of each chapter in the book of a greater consciousness.
This collection of cultural twists and triumphs is presented in 17-syllable chunks as an homage to tradition that tips its hat to the contemporary: the new Haiku. It progresses through a series of thematic segments that speak to the human condition through nature, fear, loss, love, anxiety, touching upon everything beautiful and complex in between.
Remember - as you read - the moments that have led you here. The vast expanse of geography through which language has traveled to bring us together.
The writers of Prose now invite you to see the mountains and millennia as they have- one graceful, dutiful syllable at a time.
