Part confessional, part study of the creative process, part ramblings and ravings at midnight, Vicious Circle is three parts of Douglas King's brain. A collection of poetry dealing with the creative act, what it means to be an artist, the contradictions of life, and issues of mental health. The stream of conscious poems showcases King's emotions during the lock-down of the 2020-21 pandemic. This raw, uncensored look at the mind and soul of an artist is filled with introspective musings for meaning and hope in a life centered around art.Discussed in this collection are topics such as the process of writing, the solitary and often emotional life of an artist, mental health, love, and sexuality. In some cases, the poems written by Douglas King take on a retro 70s vibe ala Jim Morrison or John Lennon (two influences) as the subconscious mind takes lead. Where it leads is anyone's guess.
