    About this ebook

    The birth of chaos. Jaffa Truex's first book is an adventure inside yourself at its best and exciting at its very least.It's a mirror reflection that we never see. A science of thought that we feel and can't run from.

    This book is a collection of truths and rebirth for all those living now and for all who once were.

    Jaffa's collection of poems are haunted with feeling that are spoken by the ghosts themselves.
    Each line is a passionate revolution turning another corner.He's fearless in his vulnerability and painfully bold through out a million lens with an emotional meditation addressing loss ,alive with joy that fully embraces the nature of the world. Thought-provoking and raw,it showcases Jaffa's imagination by making everyone feeling a special connection on another level.
