Wisteria Georgia Mabarrack

THIS BOOK IS FILLED WITH MY THOUGHTS ON THE CHAOS THAT SURROUNDS US.

Its pages are scattered with ramblings about my mother's youth and my desire to give to her all that she has given to me yet realising it would take a billion lifetimes for me to even come close. These poems speak for me. They speak about my sister's cancer and the dark thoughts that sit in the back of my mind, relaxed on their futons, laughing at me. That wrongful desire to be loved, that lives in the deepest part of my chest, crawled its way out and found a home between the covers. My childhood traumas, fears and secrets are sprawled across the pages like a wine-stained dress. I imagine if you cracked open my skull and peered through the mess, this is what you would see. I believe that my chaos may help you walk through your own overgrown garden, to find the mystical wisteria waiting underneath the sun.
