Poetic Ruminations of A Lyricist

This literary work, titled, “Poetic Ruminations of A Lyricist,” is a collection of song lyrics and poems that Carlton Dubois McClain has penned over the years. Inspired by legendary poets of the past including Maya Angelou, Alexandre Dumas, p re, Alexander Pushkin, Derek Walcott, Phillis Wheatley, and Francis Williams, many of these literary passages are selections that have been included on each of Carlton’s first four studio albums to date. This book, “Poetic Ruminations of A Lyricist,” contains original work in English, Spanish, French, German, and Louisiana Creole, and it is divided into three series, “The Inception,” “The Nexus,” and “The D nouement,” which respectively represent natural creation on a foundational level-a beginning, a middle, and an end. In all, it is Carlton’s aspiration that this book resonates in ways with someone that is facing conflict, tumult, or a lack of fulfillment in his or her life so that that individual may find solace, closure, and peace of mind when it seems that he or she is at the utter brink of despair. These ruminations are written manifestations of Carlton’s experiences with both life and love, as well as his experience with his deep conviction in Jesus the Christ, and these experiences, have, in turn, been made manifest through this book of poetry by Carlton’s own personal account and perspective of the triumvirate of relationships that he has encountered in his life thus far-amorous, amicable and spiritual.
