Breakdown Dancer

BREAKDOWN DANCER Vijay R. Nathans third poetry collection invites the reader on the not-so-unfamiliar journey into mental wellness challenges (breakdowns) and heartbreaks (breakups) and the dances between them through supplementing original poems with 3 curated playlists. Although this journey into the heart will bring us into the depths of the unknown the speaker as your guide to these deep waters illustrates pathways to understanding; when we view ourselves as most alone we will discover our connection to creation. These poems run the gambit from seeking and losing love breakdowns in psyche and in communication to an acceptance of our common struggles. This process is not just a means to an end but a worthy destination we may call home.
