About the Book
I’ve always been searching for the perfect mode of creative expression. Poetry has been a part of my life since childhood, when, each year in Polish school, I had to memorize and recite parts of classic poems such as the epic Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz. With the years I have found poetry to be a powerful outlet for observing the many facets of life. In my poetry you’ll find themes of urban alienation, mortality, love, motherhood, sensual eroticism, psychedelic journey & synaesthesia, music, and more. Welcome to my world, I hope you find some of your world in it.

Excerpt
And It Is Already the Middle of Another April
Time relentless time
What mystery drives
Its accelerating pantomime?
Crawling on all fours,
It was concerned with creation
Gesturing expansive, slow
Its face as brilliant
As the sun
Each year as biped,
It quickens
Rendering yesterdays more distant
Its countenance mocking
As we reel
As three-legged creature
It will blaze
With speed of plunging meteor
Until it takes
A final bow

Profound Passion
The Watcher: Poems, is profound, provocative and imaginative. A great read on a rainy afternoon, or curled up in bed with a loved one. I definitely recommend this book if you want to stimulate your brain, your passion, and your soul!
let it be written through the body
I like how her poetry draws words through your body and creates this visceral reaction as you read. The poems move through you. I would LOVE to hear them read by the author.
I like it!
I'm not a huge reader of poetry but I really liked this collection. I was given this book as a present and throughly enjoyed the poems. The subjects of the poems range from mothering, love, psychedelic states and more. I'd say the love poems are probably my favorite while the psychedelic ones remind me of younger times which I can relate to. I would definitely recommend this book of poems to poetry lovers and casual poetry readers. The authors passion for love and life is reflected in this collection. I plan on buying a few as presents. Highly recommended!

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
