Date Published: March 15, 2021

This book of poems is about thoughts, feelings, and emotions we all experience, struggle with, and that have been brought to the forefront by this current pandemic. Losing loved ones, our freedom, and everything taken for granted in our daily lives; while facing sadness, anger, grief, and loneliness, has taught us the importance of our love for nature, gratitude, happiness, cherished memories, and relationships. No feeling or emotion is too small or negligible. Acknowledging and expressing them is my voice from the inside.

EXCERPT

Some things are better off alone
Some things deserve to be kept
Some things are just not there
Like a dream on a night, you never slept

Poetry

 

 

Date Published:

Hard-cover: December 2020

Paperback: January 2021

Kindle/e-book: January 2021

Audiobook: January 2021

Through its 211 interwoven poems, this double-tiered recursive crown of sonnets takes the reader on an epic journey to the heart of mankind’s would-be nemesis – herself – and back again. Does her destiny await in the unexplored depths of the cosmos, or in a toxic wasteland of her own making? Does she have the will to shape her own future, or is she a slave to her myopic wants and impulses?

Requiem takes the existential threats facing humanity – from the destruction of the environment to nuclear holocaust – as a lens through which to reflect on the fate of civilization, humanity and ultimately conscious life in the universe.

About The Author

Daniel Ståhl


A software engineer by trade, Daniel Ståhl splits his time between software development, research, teaching, writing and being the father of two.

Daniel has previously published both fiction and non-fiction, with his latest forays as an author delving into strictly metered poetry. His latest book, Requiem, came into being in the intersection between the rhythmic cadence of sonnets and his despair at the sanguine apathy with which the human species approaches the prospect of its own extinction – with all of its implications for his children.

Daniel received his MSc degree from Linköping University, Sweden, and his PhD degree from the University of Groningen, Netherlands.

EXCERPT

Once fecund land yet beckons and invites
Despite assaults unending, still she blooms
But not for us; we have no claims, no rights
To her affections, love and sweet perfumes

Narcissus’ heirs we think our love returned
Yet by her disregard so discomposed
We prattle to ourselves as lovers spurned
And never look to see her ears are closed

Incessant we adore her, yet impose
And as she chokes we cannot help but gloat
Intoxicated as our fingers close
Relentless, ever tighter ‘round her throat

In dreams we miss a paradise thought lost
To wake and carry out its holocaust
