A Bruise On Light is a new collection of poetry from internationally acclaimed artist Shane Koyczan. This collection of poetry includes the poem “Shoulders” which Shane brought to stages across Canada for David Suzuki’s Blue Dot Tour.

“A Bruise On Light is a collection that’s come out of my last two years of touring. I’ve enjoyed some enormous success recently, but depression has loomed over certain milestones. It’s been a challenge to feel happy about my achievements while dark clouds appear constantly on the horizon. Nevertheless, writing has been a source of great comfort, and helps me to occasionally pan small pieces of gold from these streams of consciousness. A Bruise On Light is a collection of stone and gold… impurity and shine.”
