From social media sensation Jordan Green comes an all-new poetry collection exploring the experience of long-distance love. Love and loss are two sides of the same coin. This is never more apparent than in long-distance romance- especially when neither lover can afford to visit each other. In Her Flowers, his latest and greatest poetry book, Jordan Green bridges the border between the two by reflecting on how a devastating disaster from his childhood informs the chapter of his life he's currently in- one in which he must learn to love from a distance while navigating newer and larger losses. As he struggles to stay afloat, Jordan harbors hope in a love that spans the same ocean that once robbed him of his home. This book is intended to instill a similar hope inside the reader by providing a relatable story about a love that defies all odds. Much like the other books in his critically acclaimed "Shadow Work" series, this book serves as a safe space for the reader's soul. It is a tissue to wipe the tears of torment, and it is a bouquet that bounds all borders. The content between these coversWas crafted for loversWho happen to be long-distanceI hope to offer assistanceIn the form of a personal anecdotePerhaps it will serve as an antidoteTo all of the sicknessThat distance can bring aboutThis instance of poems follows my routeFrom loss to love to deepest of doubtsThat anyone may come acrossIf they haven't yet learnedThat seeds tend to sproutFrom the dirt we discernWhen we yearn for the pastNo matter how vast the distanceThe root of all resistanceWill rise through the rubbleOf all the troubles we've facedIf we give it space to growAnd only then will we knowHow to let our love showThat it isn't confined by a mapSo the distance between loversMay be reduced to the gapBetween these two covers -Jordan Green

There will be those who have a rather difficult time absorbing the information on the following pages and perhaps a few may even suggest that it is utter nonsense. But, no matter what the naysayers say, what you are about to read is all true.Nikita Khrushchev who was in office until 1964, and now Vladimir Putin, both depraved and iniquitous dictators, denied all of what follows. They hid the truth from the world, erasing the names of all those fallen cosmonauts in order to appear far more technically advanced than the United States. But now the truth is being told, and they both have been proven wrong.The point here is that the former Soviet Union under Khrushchev, sent up at least fifteen spacecraft carrying seventeen cosmonauts to their deaths, all while trying desperately to beat the United States during what was previously referred to as "The Space Race." And, although it cannot yet be unequivocally proven, there may well have been four more human-occupied spaceflight attempts by the Soviets, all ending in utter tragedies.On the following pages all seventeen fallen cosmonauts are identified by name, as are their space flights, and dates. It is the author's hope that it will bring some measure of comfort to the remaining family members who may have survived the previous Soviet era purges.Buckle your seat belts, because what follows is both eye-opening and astounding! It has never been in print before and this is the very first book to ever be published that actually reveals the truth. Every human-occupied spaceflight from the early days until now, including all of the forty women and men who tragically perished during spaceflight attempts, is finally revealed.
