On Second Thought
()
About this ebook
This recent collection of the author's poetry captures the innate hunger within to contemplate truth, separate fact from fiction, to view truth as supremely precious. It also focuses on those inner struggles that are common to many. These poems drive home the need to develop critical thinking ability, not to be swayed by the majority view when it goes against established higher principles.
Jason J. Humphreys
Jason Humphreys is a blue collar poet who loves long walks in the woods, belting out Stan Rogers tunes(or any other song that suits him), and periods of peaceful solitude. He has no accolades to recommend him as many established authors do save his insatiable love of learning, the written word, the natural world, and meaningful interactions. He shares his life with his wife, his father, and his cat in the beautiful and picturesque Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia - a region known for engendering reflective contemplation and inspiration.
