by C. V. Clark

Cory was born in Miami, Florida, in the cultural turning point that was 1979. He watched as corruption, drug, hate, and greed ran rampant through the halls of government and the streets of America . He watched as terrorism, war, famine, and plagues ran amuck around the world including in our own back yard. It seemed as if the darkness inherent in humanity was destined to destroy us, but somewhere in that darkness there was a speck of light. Reflections of a Dark Soul was born from that era of strife and tragedy that he grew up in. He took the strife and suffering of humanity and turned it into a collection of darkly twisted, aesthetically beautiful, and deeply disturbing poetry that scrapes across the surface of the soul to reveal the angst within us all.
