"A Heart On Exhibit." "In Every Human Heart Paces a Lion..." The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a museum as "an institution devoted to the procurement, care, study, and display of objects of lasting interest or value" or simply "a place where objects are exhibited." In Alexander Will's debut poetry anthology 'Museum', one acquires the same awe-inspiring feeling when entering renowned institutions like the MoMA or the Louvre for the first time. With Will serving as the Curator, he guides the reader-or Visitor-on a tour through this monumental collection of poetry. Presenting each piece as a fine work of verbal art, Will showcases a diverse blend of his experiences, sentiments, and visions in an impressive range of lyrical forms and styles. Just as any great museum has an eclectic display of works, this anthology has an eclectic spectrum of topics and themes, such as wisdom, romance, socioeconomic struggles, politics, materialism, existential crisis, philosophy, religion, downward spirals, heartbreak, and enlightenment; collectively, the poems tell the tale of a tragic fall and glorious uprising of an artist's spirituality as he contemplates the trends of our modern society. Included with the collection is the Curator's Commentary, a comprehensive appendix where Will offers the background and inspiration for each poem. Wise insights, strong passions, and beautiful illustrations-'Museum' is a bold tour-de-force for any Visitor who wants genuine inspiration-or expansion of an aesthetic palate-from the art of the written word. 'Museum': A Harmony of Poetical Precision. (From Ethereality Institute Publications at Ethereality.org)
