Avenue Dread - Paperback

To understand this book you have to go back to 1990. I was in my early twenties and the recession was on in Australia. I lived alone in my one bedroom flat and got into the music and club scene. Overnight I started to write poetry everyday and bought my first acoustic guitar. The experience was profoundly spiritual and at times supernatural. I knew then that I had a calling and that I would follow it my whole life. I published my first book in 1997 (Dream Engineering) and will republish it next. I will also publish another much larger collection that is Dream Engineering unedited. These three books make up the entire story. The book (Avenue Dread) itself is best described as a spiritual, poetic, journey to find truth. It was written in many different locations and over a period of ten years. It is made up of many small, individual poems with a few long exceptions. The work as whole had very little editing, unlike Dream Engineering which I heavily edited. And now will present in it's true form. Avenue Dread is a story of darkness that finds the light. There are many themes that run through the entire collection. Some of the things I try to say may be a little abstract. But overall I think the message is clear. It has the element of love, it also has darkness and light because these where all the things I experienced. I found God and was able to finish my last book. It is my hope to inspire people to God. The poetry also blossomed into music which I also hope to present. You can see my music and contact me at magcorp@hotmail.com Facebook Cavador Muse
