Familiar Enemy: A Story in Prose and Poetry

This is a tale about how a love story can go awry and then right itself again. A man, a lover, broken by the weight of his beloved over a period of time, begins to fall apart at the seams. Well, the beloved is not innocent in this inner-destruction of her lover. She weighs heavy upon him, breaking his soul into miniscule pieces. Death comes into play, not at the end, but in the beginning.The book contains two offerings of this tale. First, a prose telling. Next, one in poetry. The poem was written first but appears last in this work. For astute readers, begin halfway through the text, then work your way back to the beginning. It's the same tale, just through a different lens.The prose offering won third-place in a story contest back in 2010. Nobody has seen the poem, yet. That is, until this book is opened.
