Between our first paper and our final granite markings, our lives evolve. During this limited time on earth, we garner numerous experiences, some of which may hinder our vision and change our perceptions without our awareness. The death of a loved one is one such tragedy that can blind, sometimes completely.
In this volume of primarily free verse poetry, author David J. Gluck addresses this challenge we all experience sometime in our lives. The work, a two-year journey through grief, conveys Gluck's feelings as he discovers how to live an engaging life after the death of his mother.
Communicating in a strong narrative voice, the poems in Paper and Granite: Between the Markings offer a serious presentation of significant thoughts and emotions. Gluck reminds us that we must never forget those who affected us and made us who we are. Nevertheless, we must learn to see beyond the stones no matter how difficult this may be.

Paper and Granite: Between the Markings
Chapter One
Until Still To write of death is still to write of life until there is no more at all; no more except the fall of breathlessness within, when next voyage begins; when those left to - must live, and those taken - still give; we write of heartache caused when breath forever paused and mem-ry became all on which living may call. Death is part of life its pain cuts like a knife; unreal to mind at first; too real for mind - a burst, a shot - too real to cope; a dose of no more hope; reality - too real - for mind to really deal with all that's left undone. Clear sky - yet see no sun, no cloud, no ground, no fun, 'til all is said and done. The ground is now her home; we're left above to roam aimless - yet guided by the light - she is - so high; so high - so high above; shooting us full of love so we may live until our lives - and breaths - are still.
Forever More
A new reality one with different pain a sight without seeing a sound without an ear life with one less worry though more without her here less guidance through the storm when seas with cliffs appear a void anew not full where life once made complete now rests within my heart to stay forever more
Knock ... and Knock Again
Announcing presence, overwhelming - undisturbed, dormant and sleeping - no more! Reintroduced unsuspectedly, still distant enough - but real - you knock with pounding authority awaking my soul - to kneel - o
