Synopsis
Trailhead Psalms: Field Notes for the Formerly Lost is a poetry collection on its face, but it cuts much deeper than that. Blending lyrical fragments, field notes, and memory, D. Blake Washington writes with unflinching honesty about survival, belonging, and the quiet holiness of endurance. These pieces trace what it means to endure—through silence, family, and the stories we carry—gathering meaning from places often left behind.
More than poetry, this is survival literature. Each poem reads like a whispered confession around a campfire, a breadcrumb on the trail back to yourself. These are not words that seek to fix. They sit beside you like a companion, offering witness instead of correction.
For every son who learned silence was safety. For every man told that softness was weakness. For anyone who has ever felt too much in a world that demands too little—Trailhead Psalms opens a space to breathe, to listen, and to find presence in what remains.
Inside these pages you’ll find:
- Raw explorations of family, identity, and the courage to feel
- Nature as mirror and sanctuary—creeks, campfires, and quiet places
- Honest meditations on what it means to be human without disappearing
Perfect for readers of Rupi Kaur’s vulnerability, Ocean Vuong’s lyrical power, and David Whyte’s spiritual depth—and for anyone seeking authentic expression of resilience and the sacredness of ordinary life.
Some trails you walk alone. Some stories you tell in whispers. Some healing happens one breath at a time.
Your path back to yourself starts here.
