After reading the many wonderful reviews on "Fury" (Nov 2002 - FanStory.com), I felt an obligation to provide an in depth look into the characteristics of the work. It's not customary for writers to rationalize their use of words or phrases, but the narrative of this work may also be as powerful as the composition itself.
So often writers will hear or see something that stimulates their creative senses. In an effort to capture the emotion, they will apply their poetic savvy to create the lyrics we read today.
With the many genres used in poetry, a reader, depending on their taste, may find one particular work more obscured than another. The idiom used by the writer has a profound affect on the reader as well as the message that's being delivered.
In the case of "Fury", certain words and phrases were selected with a precise connotation which provides support to the overall message. In fact, some writers in an attempt to stir the reader's emotions, will make use of explicit words that would otherwise be considered inappropriate.
Far too many poems have been lost because writers second-guessed their own judgement. Replacing passion with proverb, imagery with political correctness, their intent is shadowed by their fear of rejection and ridicule. It's a sacrifice worthy of silence rather than false expression. Without these true emotions our message is reduced to mere words of gross impropriety.
But as always, art is all perception. What some may see as random lines embodied by colors, others may see the sun kissing the morning sky as it peeks over the horizon.
