This is a poignant collection of poems woven within a very personal narrative. As the author comes to terms with his vision loss, we feel all his stages of grief until he teeters on acceptance. His poetry is introspective, filled with melancholy and ultimately, hope. Vision Bent is a worthy read.

I am not a poet. I'm just a so-called writer. I am half-blind. Visually impaired, if that makes more sense. These are my words. Words as smooth and creamy as milk chocolate wine. Words as clunky and misshapen as life itself. This is my story. This is VISION BENT. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~. John L. Harmon currently resides left of center in a quiet town in the state of Nebraska. When he's not writing or blogging, John is delivering bad news around town, soaking up the local library atmosphere, or relaxing with a cat on his lap. VISION BENT is his first book of poetry and his first book since becoming visually impaired.

How customer reviews and ratings work
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
