Uncaged

Uncaged is a collection of poems focused on OCD. Many of the poems have themes of struggle in one’s mind. The collection starts with the author explaining the work and some of their struggles with OCD. 

The poems have a mix of styles with some being free verse and others having alternating rhymes and non-rhymes. The poems tend to be short, often two or three stanzas with 3 to 4 lines for each stanza. From time to time, there is a picture between the poems that ties in thematically like a staircase or sunset.

While the poems often depict struggle, they also feature themes of individuality and embracing being oneself. The poems do this in a relatively straightforward manner, speaking directly to these topics (as opposed to indirectly via narrative or other means that allude to these themes). The poems are also often written in the first person. 

If you have OCD or otherwise an internal struggle. These poems may just be for you.
