A Man In Transition by K. L. RAW Rating: 3.5 (out of 5) A MAN IN TRANSITION is a collection of poems and short stories about a man whose life has been anything but perfect. He delves into his soul and pontificates on paper the good and bad of his life and how he is trying to be a better man than he was in the past. His story is within these pages and the honesty is truly the essence of the collection. His poems and stories are personal, sensual and sad. One thing is significant, K. L. believes in a higher power and firmly believes that power is what helped him to become a better husband, a better father and a man who strives to do all that and more. K. L. separates his poems into chapters such as Spiritual, Romance, Fatherhood and more. The collection is very well organized and each poem or story fits the chapter title. His poetry spanned the subject matter of infidelity, fatherhood, being a teacher, sexuality, pain and self-destruction. All the poems and stories captured a bit of the author’s own life. I personally like the poem “I May Not Be Superman, But I’m Dad” and his personal observation “Getting Out of My Own Way”. Both pieces were emotionally stirring as one could see the conflict he has dealt with being a father and man. A MAN IN TRANSITION is collection that is to be read slowly and savored. It was inspiring to read a man’s heart on pages. Although the rhyming sequences were not all the same, the poignancy of the pieces was evident. Not all the poems or stories were to my liking, but I could see the maturity of the writing throughout. There were a few grammatical issues, but this is a worthy collection.
