About the Book

Lucid Encounter

When I wrote Lucid Realms, my first book, I stood too firmly on the shoulders of those who came before me—borrowing too much from their style, rhythm, and rhyme. Writers like Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, Anne Waldman, and Russian masters like Kafka shaped that work more than I care to admit. While I value their influence, I realized I needed to step away from their shadows and write with more of my own “DNA” embedded into the poetry. With Lucid Encounters, I have tried to do just that: to free my language, strip away the constraints of formality, and embrace a more honest, unrestrained voice.

About the Book

Lucid Realms

Lucid Realms blends the boundaries between reality and dreams in a form of poetry that mirrors the methods of poets from long ago – over a hundred years back, to be exact! Surrealism is about tapping into ” psychic automatism,” aiming to convey the raw essence of thought without being constrained by logic or societal conventions. Within this compilation of works lies the artist’s depiction of individuals he encountered while overseeing them during probation or parole supervision or guiding them as a non-commissioned officer in the U.S.

What Readers Says About Book

"Lucid Encounters by Scott Perry is a poetry collection that departs from traditional influences to embrace a raw, unfiltered voice. The poems explore struggle, addiction, poverty, and societal decay, drawing from the author’s experiences and encounters over 30 years. Through vivid imagery and dream sequences, the collection presents stories of unseen lives, fractured realities, and the edges of society where survival is an art form. The poems touch on existential questions, lost dreams, and the disconnect between progress and humanity, offering a haunting reflection on modern life."

"As a former soldier, businessman, and parole officer, Scott Perry applies his experiences and active imagination to create this anthology. In accordance with one's own life journey, some of the characters, ambience, and places will be recognizable to the reader. Although there is a stark reality presented in various scenarios, purity of thought is evident. To a greater or lesser degree, we live within self or societal imposed strictures. As this book aptly illustrates, it is not always easy to determine who weaves the fabric of society and who frays the fringes."

"The author's voice rings strong and true in this collection. It is raw, powerful, and intense. He speaks of experiences shared by too many of us. His heart for people is laid bare in these verses."

Scott-Perry

These personal interactions greatly influenced my work as I documented the obstacles and emotional journeys of these individuals— some grappling with difficulties and seeking comfort in substances such as alcohol or drugs— painting a picture of the intricate nature of human life.
