Into the Eye

This is my debut poetry collection that introduces who I am as a poet as an artist and as a human being. I wrote this entire collection in the span of two weeks during Hurricane Harvey. There are high school experiences college experiences and experiences I've had as a twenty-four-year-old young man. I was inspired by the chaos and confusion that was manifesting both within my mind and externally around me. This book starts with the poem Status Quo I which expresses the turbulent mess that I started off in and ends with Status Quo II a state of peace that I reached as my mind wandered Into the Eye of my life's hurricane. It's a stormy path that leads to a dark cave into dark waters and onto dry land. There is a whirlwind mess that leads to clarity. This book is how I discovered what it means to go from a boy to a man. I'm excited for you all to read this and get to know me. I'm Scott Hill and this is my coming-of-age story.
