Shadows Amongst The Threads

We all revert back to our most primitive instincts when we face our deepest fears. It is something that has been hardwired into our psyche from day one and they never fail to surface when the need arises.Whether we are facing the unknown that lurks in the shadows, the known that stands before us or the threats that we conjure up in our own imaginations, our most basic feelings and urges will always take precedence.

Shadows Amongst the Threads is a poetic compilation of verse that feeds upon these instincts like no other work before it. Using every sinew of the negative emotions and impulses our minds feed on, it explores the horrors of our minds in a way that both makes us recoil but entices us back for more of the same.

The masterfully use of words by author J.A. Santana brings the reader straight into the heart of the action, mesmerizing and holding them in their grip, tantalizingly leaving them to contemplate what the final outcome will bring. This is poetry on the very edge, riding on waves of emotion that ultimately break upon the shores of the conscience.

From shorter works examining the mysteries surrounding Darkness to the much longer and prose-like Of Dark and Flame, these are poems of substance and vigor that can be read again and again to grasp their full significance, or simply left to remain as a fading memory as you work through each page.
