Love and Chaos

poems in the age of ignorance

​

Love and Chaos is a collection full of bittersweet reflections that grapple with the intricacies and metaphysics of existence. Rod Drought's perspective is at times nostalgic, other times heartbreaking and continually laced with a humor that understands the delicate balance between melancholy and regret. These works speak of the paradox of being, even as they sing celebration. From the elemental complications of childhood to the crushing confusion of love., with wisps of the mystical and intimations of existence in the majestic desert, here is an artist who understands the painfulness of living and the sanctity of being alive.
