What does it mean to be a man? The poems in Exposed 2U explore this question with gentleness, humour, and honesty, offering open-hearted reflections on subjects like love and romance, family and fatherhood, religion and spirituality, illness and aging, communication and community.
Through a series of accessible and poignant vignettes, Sherwin Paul Head works to crack through male armour, exposing a soft, vulnerable core. A confused and exhausted Pentecostal child falls asleep under a church pew. A housefire destroys a family home-but not the family. A new father is devastated when he accidentally exposes the film roll containing photographs of his newborn daughter, presaging future estrangement before ultimate reunion.
Exposed 2U is a revealing portrayal of masculinity and a compelling, redemptive journey. The poet’s willingness to divulge his own shortcomings and challenges offers a message of hope and encouragement, as well as an invitation to the reader to follow their own journey of self-reflection. Readers are encouraged to seek happiness through the poet’s formula: Harmony = (You + I) Communicationor H = (Y + I) C
