About

Journey Through Baca is an anthology of poems that documents the life of a young man who bounced back from trauma and abuse, homelessness and a failing marriage to discover purpose and meaning in life. It follows his failures and successes in sharp imagery and rhythmic language which moves you to tears, laughter or ecstatic delight.

The poem, Dear Mother, is pivotal in this collection. It pulls together pain and suffering into a beautiful love story in the form of a letter from a dying gay man to his abusive mother. The contrast of Reflection and Angry Reflection show how our emotions dictate the way we see the world.

This anthology deals with emotional pains, detachment and neglect, offers hope and provides comic relief to the harsh realities of life. This book of poems will take you on a journey through your darkest moments and help you to dig deep and muscle up the resilience to push back and enjoy life to the full.

It translates the words of Jesus, 'I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full' (John 10:10) and tells the reader how to access this life.
