Josh published ‘Pray’ in 2021

after 16 years of writing
he had nothing new to say

it wasn’t until 2023
his words were valid again

he reflected on ‘Pray’
while completing ‘The Henzell Way’
and decided to revamp this creation

the 2024 version includes
‘Love Josh’
a note to the reader
‘create love pop’ and ‘The Acceptance Collection’
6 images symbolising the expressed themes
and ‘Rise’
the illustration
is showcased on the back cover

Josh titled this version ‘Pray Pop’ because it is consistent with the images subsumed

the following poem is a
bullet point information guide
preparing the reader for the
poetic psychoanalysis ahead
