Produktbeschreibung
Scarlet Sealwax is a collection of twenty-eight introspective poems focusing on the essence of human relationships. In fact, it is the concept of idealized love that permeates this collection. Under the dystopian circumstances that we are currently experiencing as a species, idealized love, no matter how utopian, is looked upon as an emotional condition resulting from self-awareness, self-respect, honesty and unconditional (yet fully conscious) devotion to one's beloved, with whom one may happen to be lucky enough to experience a wholesome connection at all levels: spiritual, emotional and physical. To the mind of the poetess, it is only through the experience of whole-hearted love and devotion that the transfiguration of the self, the miraculous rebirth of one's soul and, hence, fulfilment and bliss, are attainable. What also emerges is that self-actualization, in all respects, will only be possible if one is prepared to shake free from intentionally fabricated misconceptions about what is right and what is wrong. It is to break, to shatter, I dare say, the "rusty moulds" of what has been falsely established as "the norm". This is actually just a set of poisonous and mutilating stereotypes, maiming people's thoughts, deeds, dreams, potential and their whole lives.
