Ryan Kasper, born on October 21, 1999, in the greater Rochester area of upstate New York, has been a storyteller and a challenger of norms from a young age. At 18, he enlisted in the US Army, an experience that took him across Europe and Asia. These travels significantly shaped his unique perspectives on life, enriching his storytelling with diverse global insights. These poems are an attempt to capture and rationalize these experiences and emotions to lead to a better life. Ryan dreams of a world where people learn to set aside their differences and come together to create a thing of beauty and embody the very best of human values, we just need to find a way to unite and go forward together.
