You take a bad step on the stairs and almost do the splits. It's raining and your umbrella is in the car which is in the parking lot 500 feet away. People dash out in front of you while you're driving, a clap of thunder almost literally scares the crap out of you. Your office badge won't work, computer doesn't boot up, you're late clocking and you don't know it but this is the best your day is going to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImagine every emotion felt in this short time and these are the same emotions you'll feel reading this poetry collection. When you're done reading it you'll want to cry or take a shower to wash the depressive grit of life from your skin. Or you may want to cry in the shower and get them both out of the way. This is life and life is poetry but you will most definitely feel a small sense of hope when you're done.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese words are grounded in reality and sometimes you have to face the reality of life because running away is only a temporary fix. Buckle up, take a breath and know that all of it, even life itself is only temporary. That tiny glimmer of hope in your gut may only be the size of a glowing ember from an almost-spent cigarette, but that is all you need. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.09 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 24, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52731067203891,"sku":"9781966075011","price":20.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/SHocc4ALze9781966075011.webp?v=1763848585","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/standing-lonely-in-the-alley-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
