I’m poet Guy Farmer and I write poetry for deeper people. What’s a deeper person? I tend to think of them as someone who possesses an intensity of feeling and perception that goes beyond what most others normally appreciate.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt like I experience things at a more profound level than most people. This characteristic is reflected in my poetry in that I suggest many possible meanings and avenues for exploration and follow paths many try to avoid. My poems don’t resonate with people solely looking for superficial entertainment.
I had a reader in London say, “Your poetry works in different dimensions, almost as if it were written for people who are ready to experience something beyond standard reality.”
Here are some of my poems for deeper people:
- Centuries
- Condition Worsening
- Without Questioning
- Indifferent
- Enforcers
- Orbit
- Appalling
- Sham
- Conformity
- Recognized
- Monotone
- Polite Visages
- Abstraction
A heartfelt thank you to the lovely deeper people all over the world who have made this site and my poetry book a success. I’m glad you’re out there experiencing things at a profound level.
