Overview
Tidal Wave is B.A. Sugalski's first collection of poetry. It's cartilage cracking against your ribcage during a morning stretch; it's sneaking Cranberry Stoli and Sprite mixed in a water bottle into class. The culprit behind the "ugh" that resonates under your bosom; the free dive into concrete that we take into puppy love, and the wary tip-toes we take into our last (and only) love. The stark difference between melancholy tears that dry between your cheek and a pillow, and the waterworks that flow when reciting your wedding vows. Unrelenting gravitational force inflicted upon the ocean -- until she breaks and becomes something she's never dreamed of. This book is the human heart on paper. It includes poetry and prose that I've written as a 16 year-old heartbroken teen, a 21 year-old living it up in Waikiki with the love of my life, 23 years-old as a first-time expecting twin mother, and 24 years-old as a parent grieving the loss of one child and celebrating the birth of the other. It exists because during its creation, I have carried more hurt and love - the things we need to feel - than ever before. Some of it was bound to overflow. This is how I heal.
