Benjamin John Edmonds is all one might believe.
In time joy will be everything.
Benjamin John Edmonds was born in Pottsville, Pennsylvania in 1987, the youngest of two children. He came out of the womb and into the world pissing. In his early years he was accused by teachers on accounts of plagiarism, having stole phrasings from the unspeakable nothing, the omniscient ethos. The educators, though unable to find proof, conceived his work must be plagiarized and faulted him poorly. In 2005 he graduated from public High School. The following year he attended a spiritual organization in hopes of becoming a person better to serve the world. His life mantra was developed in this year to be that of a poor poetic nomad. He wandered the earth for the following eleven years and began his journey into barbering and writing. Along this becoming journey he discovered not only passion but meaning in the word, something mysterious and vivid. He holds himself together with butterfly stitches and a floating stomach, a garden of convictions that grow big like sunflowers amongst otherwise, mundanity.
The experience Benjamin has is highly regarded amongst local aficionados and enthusiast of the written word. The words he has to say have resounded with the keenest minds of the millennial generation. ‘Behold, A Dying Sunbird’ is his debut release, written in poetic imagery, formless, gritty and raw.
Watch him grow.
