Not for bedtime reading

Edgy Poetry is a 30-poem collection of short works designed to provide mystery, evoke curiosity and generally build upon questioning, disquieting thoughts. Poems are arranged in order of creepiness.

Why would anyone want to read such a work? Why does anyone read a mystery/thriller, watch scary movies, or stare at an accident scene? We need to feel excitement, exhilaration, to capture our curiosity...It is for entertainment and thoughtful pondering that I hope you will consider this work. I have included type of poem and date written with each piece...as it creeps along.

"Poetry is music in words."

Marlene Mesot
