About the Book

Using words as a microscope, the poems of M. Skye Holly.do not simply scratch the surface of what is seen. These poems find what has been ignored and dig deeper for what is thought and felt. The works of in depth are divided into sections to hold a mirror to the spirit that everyone is, the soul that everyone has, the body that everyone lives through and the community that everyone lives in. Sometimes posing questions, other times offering solutions, in depth showcases parts of life and experience coming together to create one big picture. Or one deep poem.
