Abstract
LOST AND FOUND is a collection of poetry that attempts to establish a parallel between existence of the self and of the collective. In an effort to explicate the necessity of self-identity and selfless unity, these poems present the varied efforts of different social sects, as well as the efforts of an individual. These works address the differences of import between self and society, examine the drastic impulse of motivation and reveal cultural sects unafraid of criticism and implication.
