Articoli correlati a A Pale Shade of Blue: A Collection of Poetry
In this revised edition of his poetry collection, A Pale Shade of Blue, Tommy Melis explores topics ranging from feminism and equality to religious oppression and existential freedom. For this revision, he has added new poems written between 2011 and 2012 and included previously unreleased poetry written between 1999 and 2008, representing his earliest work. Like most Cuban Americans, he grew up in a family that celebrated their rich cultural history as both Cuban exiles and first-generation Americans.
The characters represented in his poems have overcome mental illness and found healing in identifying common societal themes between the blurred lines of justice and freedom. Having to find their way to the light, they speak out of the darkness they have seen, and their relentless emotional trappings they each seek to be free from. The stories are of perseverance and often speak of things normally swept under rugs. The poems in this collection are divided into five distinct books: “Book One: The Tree Growing” represents rebirth and belief; “Book Two: Stems” considers embracing and releasing the darkness; “Book Three: Branches” speaks to oppression and cultural moldings; “Book Four: Fire” covers lessons learned; and “Book Five: Roots” looks at the connection between the poet and his reader.
A Pale Shade of Blue opens up the world of a vibrant culture and the emotions associated with overcoming personal challenges for all to consider.
