Fractured Thoughts

We find ourselves in precarious times, our lives balanced on the edge of chaos and destruction. The fears of a generation ago seem tame compared with the scope of the existential crises that face us now. Global pandemic, racial reckoning, climate change, and a breakdown of the international order overshadow ubiquitous relationship and mental health challenges.

In his poetry, Robert Humphries gives voice to the concerns, joys, and fears that are inside everyone and inspires us to reflect on our own mental landscapes. Fractured Thoughts, his first book, is a glimpse into his hopes, dreams, worries, and fears. His poetry represents both the best and worst of himself in a raw and unfiltered way.

Robert Humphries is a student of human history and the natural world. His imagination reflects the existential worries of our time. He lives in Kelowna with his partner and daughter.
