Repurposed (Trial by Lineation)

When we reach our destination,
I BUBBLE with the fumarole
Knowing that I have earned a rare sight,
Remembering all the barriers that might have kept me away,
And thankful that I have
endured.

In his debut collection of poetry, Anthony Andricks invites readers on an intimate journey of self-discovery and resilience as he navigates through the tumultuous seas of unworthiness, self-loathing, and self-harm to a place of acceptance, love, identity, and purpose.

With each verse, the author boldly shares the trauma, grief and heartbreak forming the stepping stones that guided him to a place of light and empowerment, weaving a tapestry of vulnerability and strength along the way.

Through his collection, Anthony reaches deep into the hearts of his readers to encourage them to keep going through the anguish and to embrace the transformative power of healing. His poems are a source of solidarity, encouragement solace, and inspiration for anyone struggling in life.
