"Love & Lust" is acclaimed poet Genna J. Whitlock's new collection of deeply emotional rhyme and near-rhyme prose and song lyrics that explores the age-old question "What is love?" Whitlock's lyrics, soon to be set to music, explore many different forms of love: Philia love - a clear and pure 'friendship' love without any motive;Storge love - a love of family, like the love you feel for your parents and children;Ludus love - a playful love at the start of a couple's romantic relationship;Mania love - an obsessive and manic love where nothing else matters or exists;Pragma love - a long-term and mature love that brings abundant happiness and harmony;Agape love - an altruistic, unconditional and universal kind of love without expectation;Philautia love - a healthy love and respect for oneself, without narcissism; and finallyEros love - an erotic and romantic love, often underpinned by sexual attraction - or lust.It is by immersing ourselves in Whitlock's poetic words, and delving into her rhythmical concepts that seeks to understand the battle between heart and head that we can start to unravel our own complex set of emotions, actions, and paradigms that cause our strong feelings and desires to rise. That is, we can begin to understand our own 'love' in its many forms - whether it be attachment, attraction or romantic affection, or even lustful erotic passion."Love & Lust" is essential reading for poetry lovers and romantics everywhere. It will take you on a very personal journey of highs and lows, unmasking your own varied forms of love and even igniting your desire to love (or lust) again.
