Been a long while since I read poetry. I'm glad this one is worth the time and effort. I low-key admire the use of profanity. A well-written review.

What struck me most about this review was the way it delved into the thematic richness of the poems, exploring how Black's verses grapple with profound issues like love, fear, societal judgments, and the cathartic process of healing from past traumas. The reviewer's analysis of specific poems like "In the Arms of Morpheus," "The Captor and the Key," and "Reflections" was particularly compelling, showcasing the reviewer's keen understanding of the emotional resonance and symbolic complexity present in Black's work.

Poems are such an effective way to passage a message. Their relative brevity makes them all the more memorable. However, I have never read a collection with a musical undercurrent, so I look forward to reading Tiki Black's work.

I loved how this review highlighted the unique blend of poetry and music in The Sound Of Broken Wand. The mention of the poem "In the Arms of Morpheus" and its theme of finding refuge is particularly intriguing. I'm excited to explore these deep, resonant themes myself.

The author, a renowned songwriter, pens introspective poems that will excite music lovers. The poems tackle the themes of love, societal judgement. and the fear of entrapment. The book is relatively short so anyone craving a quick read will enjoy the intriguing journey of human experience.

I can't find myself in poetry as a stand-alone, however I love poetry in music. I like the idea of writing poetry with accompanying musical notes. Poetry is a good friend yourself. You write your fillings and emotions by poetry.

When studying literature, one needs to learn from poetry books as well. The theme of contemplation and its encounter with the art of poetry would be an interesting concept in the story. Reading your review makes me even more eager to read this book. Thank you for writing this. What a great review.
