Selfhood
Selfhood can be a deep and treacherous thing. External agitators strip us of personality, tell us who to be and what to stand for. Selfhood seeks to explore both the personal and the cultural limitations of Self. What is a Self, how do we self-actualize?
Knows No End
*Knows No End* is both a narrative and a history of artistic conquest. In following a painter through all four seasons, we are brought into a philosophical world of constant change, despair, striving, and dream. The painter seeks the eternal truth through her visionary artwork as she paints the legendary hyacinth flower. The story unravels her sacrifice as it becomes futile in evolution. We learn with her that beauty and eternity are one together, and seeking higher truths is an abundant approach to resolving the problem of flux.

The Daunting Ephemeral
The Daunting Ephemeral explores the quirky and creative side of life, and embraces spirituality from a humanistic worldview. Pickering misappropriates the language of religion and some of its history to ask the reader if our conceptions of the divine are overly simple, and if we can embrace awe and mystery without compunction. Pickering's first full-length collection of poems also includes The Vanishing Point, a short chapbook published in 2012. The author pursues questions most people are afraid to ask: "If God exists, why do I not believe?" The Daunting Ephemeral will not answer life's mysteries, but it will provide a backdrop for curiosity, imagination, and struggle. It will ask the reader to stare deeply into the eyes of the Unknown-- and ask if it is truly the Unknown, does it truly know it is?
