Amazon Category:  Poetry Publisher: Publish America ISBN-10:  1424172683 Type: Fiction Pages: 88 Copyright: May 2006 ISBN-13: 9781424172689 Book of poetry that took me 2-3 years to write. Release date May 21, 2007. People never understood the problems Edgar Allen Poe was going through. His stories and poems may have been odd and on the dark side a little bit but that's what made him such a good author. It's also why I like him so much. As for me my poems are pretty deep and usually from experience, which is what makes them good. It makes the reader feel everything as they read it whether it be fear or joy. That's how a writer gets their money.     Excerpt Anger and Abuse I sit on my bed drinking Hawaiian Punch Thinking of my abuse and blood Emotional outbreaks of anger send me to a mental hospital, Salamanders and fire make me wonder… Wonder about who I am. Dragon flames and fire fill the room around me, Making me gasp for air because I'm blacking out. Leaves fall through the room as I sink to my knees and I wonder Wonder why I'm abused and filled with anger. I think I know why It's because I'm a troubled fire child. But you tell me this, Am I really at fault for who I am? Am I really at fault?

I ventured out of my reading comfort zone when I read this collection of poems. Dark, gut-wrenching poems are not my forte. Give me the happy, cheerful variety that rhymes and I?m happy!

But I am glad I decided to read Silent Stalker. I was in awe at the author?s ability to capture her feelings in such a profound way. Everything from anger and sadness to hope and wonder are in this book. I believe that anyone who opens its pages will find something that will speak to them.I enjoyed the silliness of "Fred the Frog" and the heart wrenching words of "A Young Life", "Anger and Abuse", and "Foster Care". I was moved when I read "Fallen Angels" and "Memories of a Fallen Soldier". I discovered hope in "A Month of Sundays" and "A Renewed Life". I smiled when I read how the author contemplates the simple things in life in "Bald Eagles", "Camping", and "Rabbits". Take a step out of the box you're used to hiding in like I did - and read "Silent Stalker". You will find that Ayisha Blevins is a talented poet and wise beyond her years

I have heard that poetry is an art form that speaks to the trials and tribulations of the human spirit. Silent Stalker certainly does speak to every part of the human condition, from the loss of loved one to the innocents of playing a game of volleyball. In reading these poems I found myself caught up in her words. Ms. Blevins has a way of reaching out and touching your heart and your mind, and making you think back to times in your own life when things as she has described may have occurred. I found in reading this well crafted poems that I couldn't wait to read the next one. Thank you, Ayisha for sharing your gift of poetry with all of us.
