Michael Kasenow Award-Winning Author & Poet

 
Overview

Michael Kasenow’s new volume of poetry, Something’s Bound To Happen, is now available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other online sources. Below are some of the award winning poems that you can read in his collections. Six Feet Down is a book of poems that break through the walls of idealism and naiveté. The voices are mature with respect for mortality, regret and the empty promise of broken dreams. Lost love, materialism, alienation, and the need for purpose are a few of the themes and threads that tie these visions together. There is disappointment here, and despair, but there is also the acceptance that life is what we make it out to be. Control is the illusion; choices are all we have. Six Feet Down is a walk through memory and time—a passage through the inevitable—the truth of what is. Here are some samples from the award winning collection of poems.

 
Overview

Michael Kasenow’s collection of poems examines the wounds of abuse, materialism, love lost, alienation, and the need for purpose—and celebrates the beauty of endurance, survival, and the miracle of each breath. “Kasenow knows that it takes complexity to create his art and art is what he creates. His poetry touches each subject with the respect it is entitled. Choices we make as people control who and what we become.” —Rebecca’s Reads. This collection is a passage through the webs we weave—the obvious—the yin and yang of existence—the inevitable—and the long search for purpose.
