Up and Coming Author Prepares for the Release of Second Book of Poetry: Diary In Reverse
Houston, TX -- June 22, 2009 -- “Diary In Reverse is just a poetry collage of real life and love experiences.” With that as the basis, Audreyanna Garrett is set to release her second book of poetry. Diary In Reverse captures the emotion and trials of relationships.

A different perspective to her critically acclaimed 2006 release, Poetically Speaking, Diary In Reverse began as simple journal entries, a way to vent and document challenging life experiences and relational feelings. “I began to write poems and entries about them and then it evolved into to a collage, which I later restructured in to a reversed version of my diary…” says Garrett, “… the irony and inconsistency of some of the sections in the collage give it dynamic. It makes it more realistic and relatable to me. I wanted everyone to be able to relate to the poems.”

The book is scheduled to be released and available for purchase via web on www.lulu.com/diaryinreverse on June 25th 2009. Samples of Garret’s work can be viewed on her blogs at www.soulpoetspeaks.blogspot.com and www.theverticalperspective.blogspot.com. Information for the official book signing and release party will be posted on these sites. “… Diary In Reverse is just a poetry collage of real life and love experiences… it is love made plain…”

The Edit

Just like these corrections made on these pages I flip through, I edit this life...trimming off the loose ends, eliminating the weak friends, who only want to use you. I don't need to express every detail, but just like these words and phrase I skim through I take careful consideration to every trial and glory. Were you apart of the journey? Or did you just coast. Riding the coat tail waiting to float to the one you thought would save you. Just like I thought, a huge disappointment, and the cycle continues. When are you going to make sense of it all? Treat edits like cuts and rid yourself of them all. Rain clears out the past and then we forget it. Unless it was traumatic and who needs the extra. I don't, but you can have it.

Like the new phrases and paragraphs that strike the hand, like the poems I whisper to myself or new friends, its appreciated. Leaving them behind moves you ahead. Get rid of it...the run-ons, the parody, the ironies and let truth through. Can you expect great things when old habits consume you?

I love to play the role of the editor. Taking control over life like I control this script. If you can't play the part, I simply edit it. If you are not cut out, just consider yourself eliminated. And it goes with out saying. I do not suffer for it. Your loss I just gave it to you. I just put it in your face, gave you clarity...you claimed it and made it tangible.

So I encourage you to seek the opportunities to make the edits. Be the editor. You maybe surprised at the amount of peace you experience.

One Love!

It's been awhile...

So, it's been awhile since I spoke to you...

Sometimes love has waiting periods
Just like
This cyber interaction
Although it takes
Time
I come back to you
I have to
I need you to release
The stresses
You may experience them too
So I write to free the turmoil
You relate to
Corporate America's demands
Personal dreams
Projects withstand
The time restraints
And I
Could never make it without faith
It only gets better
I claim
Fortune
In near future
Peace adorns
Success tangible
And goals obtained
Now time brings
The new
And I start again
Until the next while...
