What Fresh Hell Awaits?
What fresh hell awaits?
What nightmare lies behind the door of Sanctuary?
I must be resolute,
stand and face the coming tide.
The ebb and flow of things to come,
rain falling on the just and unjust alike
but I know that helium’s turned hydrogen when I shine.
Saturated,
radiant darkness
born to suffer
the sweet and the sour of some star-crossed lover.
Great stories endure and injuries fade,
weathered and worn by the life-giving rain.
Time is the villain of the experienced and proud.
We wax and we wane like the cold winter moon
and there isn’t a doubt that we’ll all disappear hardly making a sound.

About the Book
What Fresh Hell waits within the pages that are ahead of you? What wisdom can you draw from the experiences of a more than travelled explorer of the world?
This collection of poems is exactly that; the collection of wisdom, experiences and lessons learned by RJ Wasser over the course of the last decade which included heartbreak, multiple combat deployments and more insanity than most people see in a lifetime. Poetry and prose have often been used for cathartic reasons but this collection of writings is undoubtedly more of a confession to deeds desires and capers that most could barely imagine.
So what Hell does wait within these pages? Is there a peaceful serenity to the story or does the rabbit hole continue to fall farther and farther into an almost willful madness?
