Publisher's Synopsis
Very few poets have the audacity to write an entire collection about poets and plagiarism. Elijah is one of the first.
Through forty-four heavy poems, Elijah constantly battles to be his own original poet while advocating for every artist tormented by feelings of inadequacy, evils of envy, and the many faces of injustice. Written during quarantine (2020-2021), Poet Versus Plagiarism passionately proves that an artist's life is far from easy by portraying their shortcomings and challenges through various perspectives. However, it is these said shortcomings and challenges that have made artists fonder of their craft and more inspired to master it. Elijah has weaved an intricate, heart-wrenching tale of who exactly is the Poet, and whether a plagiarist lies beneath the letters of a poem, or a reader somehow finds their reflection. CONTENT / TRIGGER WARNINGMentions and/or descriptions of blood, death, drug use, murder, violence. Reader discretion is strongly advised.
