To understand this book you have to go back to 1990.
I was 22 and the recession was on in Australia.
I lived alone in my one bedroom flat and got into the music and club scene.
Overnight I started to write poetry everyday and bought my first acoustic guitar.
The experience was profoundly spiritual and at times supernatural.
I knew then that I had a calling and that I would follow it my whole life.
I published my first book in 1997 (Dream Engineering) and will republish it next.
I will also publish another much larger collection that is Dream Engineering unedited.
These three books make up the entire story.
The book itself is best described as a spiritual, poetic, journey to find truth.
It was written in many different locations and over a period of ten years.
It is made up of many small, individual poems with a few long exceptions.
The work as whole had very little editing, unlike Dream Engineering which I heavily edited.
And now will present in it's true form. Avenue Dread is a story of darkness that finds the light.
There are many themes that run through the entire collection. Some of the things I try to say may be a little abstract. But overall I think the message is clear. It has the element of love, it also has darkness and light because these where all the things I experienced.
Of the seventeen years I have been writing poetry I have been a christian for the last two.
I found God and was able to finish my last book. It is my hope to inspire people to God.
The poetry also blossomed into music which I also hope to present.
