Dancing on Thin Ice Timbre Lynn

Dancing on Thin Ice is a compilation of poems that were born into their own various styles and spoken through the author's voice based on experiences of the moment. In her straight-forward manner, Timbre Lynn speaks, without pretense, to the human condition of dealing with loss and love and lost love and learning that self-love is an act of gratitude. Speaking through images depicted of death and the restorative beauty that can come from death, she says of her first poetry collection sampler, "It is a societal norm to lie to oneself. We pretend those 'selfies' hold any resemblance to our actual selves -- after making fish faces into upheld cameras, after using spatulas to paint on or camouflage facial features of our choosing. This chapbook is me without makeup." In this chapbook, enjoy award-winning Cowboy Poetry in the first section, free or blank verse and even a sonnet in the second section: "Venus Lied," followed by a section of Christian lyrics and praise poems.
