Ghosts of a Broken Heart

Ghosts of a Broken Heart collects the early poetry of William P. Robertson written primarily during his college years at Mansfield University and during a dark period following graduation. The work is gritty, emotion-charged, and irreverent as a young man s soul. There s plenty of experimentation, too, as Robertson purges his demons by plunging boldly into free verse, shaped verse, and traditional rhymed styles. All is expressed in a voice that rose often in anger and disillusionment but never broke. His image-packed poems of lost love are classics of the genre. Surviving heartbreak is what this book is all about.
