Omissions: Poems Better Left Unspoken

Rate this book
"...what I’ve felt of God’s beyond and mysteries not yet meant to be made clear are a hundred poems unto themselves, but something in the grace of September Sunflowers slipping into the solace of 7 p.m. shadows might well enough explain it..."

Teeming with uproarious anecdotal charm and cutting satire, Omissions: Poems Better Left Unspoken puts under the poetic lens a host of eclectic experiences and ideas in an often brazen but delightfully off-the-cuff fashion.

Drawing on wry caricature depictions, tales of the willfully moon-eager, and the strain of life grounded in routine humdrum, each entry tempts the mind into further spaces of fittingly dark-humored observations, reminding us that some thoughts, while relatable, remain private for our greater good.

With recurring themes in love, loss, the intimate pursuit of a spiritual self, and understanding how time and experience help guide our humanity, readers of Ty's works have come to enjoy an often deeply reflective tone at the heart of his poetry, encouraging them to ponder the bigness of the world around them through the wonderment of words.

Ty Gardner's Omissions skillfully navigates through a series of uncomfortable themes, provoking contemplation, laughter, and a deep exploration of life's unspoken details. Each poem within the collection stands as an individual story, inviting readers to confront the implications of their own unspoken truths. Highly recommend this thought-provoking collection to those seeking a meaningful and introspective reading experience facilitated by a talented wordsmith.
