The Sound Of Broken Wand unfolds as a compilation of poetic creations by Tiki Black, a renowned singer-songwriter. Opting to crystallise her contemplations and encounters into the art of poetry, Black seamlessly integrates musical notations with her verses, adding a layer of depth that particularly resonates with individuals attuned to the world of music. Delving into an array of themes, the poems traverse the realms of love, the entrapment of fear, the weight of societal judgements, and the therapeutic act of relinquishing the past.

Within the book's aesthetic presentation, a meticulous selection of font types contributes to its overall allure, complemented by captivating visuals and thought-provoking quotes preceding each poem. Among the collection, "In the Arms of Morpheus" emerges as a personal favourite, encapsulating the essence of finding refuge where external burdens hold no dominion. Similarly, "The Captor and the Key" poignantly explores the struggle against metaphorical incarceration, be it in the form of negative thoughts or the haunting echoes of past traumas. However, it is "Reflections" that resonates profoundly, recounting Black's own confrontation with hurtful comments. This particular piece serves as a poignant reminder to cultivate an unwavering self-identity in the face of baseless criticism.

While certain facets of the poems employ figurative language, demanding a more profound level of introspection, this complexity does not diminish the overall impact of the collection. Awarding a commendable 5 out of 5 stars, the absence of errors and minor profanity further elevates the quality of Black's work. The anticipation of even greater literary achievements in her subsequent creations accompanies this positive evaluation. It is a short read of less than 100 pages. 

Recommended primarily for poetry enthusiasts, The Sound of the Broken Wand extends its appeal to those with an affinity for music, with Tiki Black's accompanying musical notes providing an enriching parallel experience. Enjoy your read!

Tikki Black’s poetry is at once easy to read, yet deep and emotional. I feel as if she’s a rose bud, slowly unfurling, nearly ready to face the expanse of the sunlight yet feels still an integral part of the plant, still ‘owned’.
