Shocked and Awekword: American Vernacular
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. Poetry and art sporadically worked their ways into and out of Pesces life. As an adult, writing and painting became Pesces preferred routes towards organizing his thoughts. Slowly overtime, this book curated itself, according to Pesce, resulting in: Shocked and Awekword: American Vernacular (published by Xlibris). It is a poetry and art book written by a 30-year-old that lives in the mountains. Pesce is obsessed with his dog, Bora Bora and to describe her, he quotes Madonna in the classic film: A League of Their Own, by saying: Its more than just a name, its an attitude He enjoys quiet moments and conversing with creative minds, and he attempts to transcend twice a day. The difference between love and lust are contemplated in the book, the curious nature of a U.S. Marine Corps and Iraq War Veteran living in post-9/11 America is explored. There is a renewed interest in poetry. Poetry never went away, but lately I have noticed a renewed interest by would-be-outsiders of the discipline itself. Poetry either tries to make a simple topic difficult, or a difficult topic simple. Much of a Poets drive is to write concisely and in a truthful manner Pesce shares. He wanted to put another point of view out into the atmosphere. Some of his most genuine thoughts come from personal experiences, conversations with people known to him, as well as conversations with cigarette smoking stranger buddies on streets in various places, usually shivering. He, and rightfully so, questions the relevancy of anything in todays society, and doesn't want to put that kind of pressure on the back of his one hundred sixteen page baby. Egalitarianism is explored, being a veteran of arguably the most unpopular war in American history is an underlying theme, American art and culture are celebrated. The take-away for the reader is this: We are all in this together That is fact. Both great and terrifying, factual information. This is Pesces first book to be published, a solid prefacing passage is titled: Type-T: Predominantly I think about moving and movement and mountains. Ultimately I think about moving mountains.
