Commentaries on life, from a planet ruled by psychopaths and sociopaths, in a world of inequality, war, poverty and misery, created by us. Commentaries on a planet of awesome beauty in a universe of wonder. Written post Brexit and Trump, in the midst of a pandemic, in a country governed by extremist nationalists led by a clown - in a world on the brink of environmental catastrophe.

The world waits, lungs paralysed, minds frozen, cocooned in hope, with expectations so enormous people cannot even imagine the scale of their dreams. Everything hangs suspended. They want a Messiah, a universal panacea, an end to this mess we have created. They have tried democracy. They have tried capitalism. They have tried populism. They now want poetry! They want to breathe again, to think, love, share and find spiritual enlightenment. Opher’s new volume may well be the answer!

Once de marzo Antología de largos poemas Incluye 47 poemas propios. Toda antología es un capricho, con más o menos acierto, puesto que obedece a una selección inexplicable. Cuando puedes centrarte en un periodo de más de treinta años, el riesgo es encontrarse con un desorden de posibilidades infinitas. Sin embargo, por el aliento de algunos de los poemas escogidos decidí dividir los textos en tres partes: Barcelonas, Persistencias, Ecos. En la vida nada se presenta con una única forma, ni con una única voz. Todo se superpone, igual que capas de una cebolla que se van desenvolviendo...

A SHORT POEM, FROM A BABYSITTER'S POINT OF VIEW.

Uma seleção com o melhor de um dos mais importantes poetas brasileiros de hoje. Ricardo Aleixo não é um, mas vários. Há em sua obra, cuidadosamente trabalhada desde a estreia em livro nos anos 1990, uma mescla do melhor da poesia e das artes brasileiras dos séculos XX e XXI. Aleixo é lírico e profundo como os melhores poetas mineiros desde Drummond; é experimental como os concretistas; carismático na mistura de lirismo, depoimento pessoal e irreverência como Leminski; performático e interessado na música e no teatro; contundente na denúncia do racismo brasileiro como Mano Brown.

The ceremony itself is just two words: "I do". But lots more has been written about the anticipation, the event, and the aftermath, and The Voices of Marriage gathers the best poems ever written on this most extraordinary moment, at once the most private and the most public, in a person's life. From Shakespeare to our own day, here are poets whose lines sparkle with wit, or hush with mystery.

Here we are in 2023. There is so much going on. We have the Tory Party in complete meltdown over their lies, corruption, sleaze and incompetence. We’ve a mean old Trump either looking into the abyss of prison or an improbable come-back. We’ve a terrible war in Ukraine that’s threatening to either turn nuclear or cause the demise of Russia. We’ve the spectre of Xi looking on and North Korea has gone relatively quiet. Top that off with the cost of living, poverty and a world that is heating up and you can see that there are more than enough issues for me to get my teeth into. As the ...

It would be very easy to assume that a book titled “Life Through Stoned Eyes” would be centered around the marijuana-induced ruminations of a poetic pot-head. This, of course, would be a shallow assumption and one that not only misses the mark but completely shifts the mark. It would also signal a lack of appreciation for symbolism, allegory and the ingenuity of personification and metaphorical art. Immediately upon receiving “Life Through stoned eyes” for review and the honor of writing a forward for an author whose work impresses and motivates me, I began to seek out the metaphor ...

These are poems that I wrote when I lost two women that have played a role in my child-hood, my grand-mother and aunt. They both passed away this year, I mourned for them and wrote these poems. They tormented my life when I was young. I held the hands that once beaten me with love instead of with revenge. I forgave them, prayed for them and loved them before they died. In all these I thank God of heaven.

I wrote these poems when someone said to me “Doreen, just be content it is not yet time for you to prosper”. Another person said to me “my Pastor said an elephant is pregnant for 18 months. So don’t’ rush to want to prosper”. I told the person, I’m not an elephant but a human being. I did not have any source of income, begging for accommodation, food and clothing. I no longer had the luxury of buying myself clothes but wore second hand clothes some were too small or too big. I was told “remember beggars are not choosers”. These poems are not only of my personal life but of...

While staying in a storeroom due to poverty, God said to me "take the pen and write poems Doreen". These poems about pain, hope and courage where written within two days. Truly they are Holy Spirit inspired. Comment from my Pastor was "these poems are from God".

This book Souls In A Clay Pot is a collection of poems I wrote about people whose souls are imprisoned. It was during the time when my mother, half brother and sister did not want me to work or do business to have money so that I must be their slave begging help from them for accommodation, food and clothing. One of the many great things of our God is that “He is no respecter of persons”. There are mothers and fathers who are tormenting their children some even kill their children. Dealing with witchcraft unfortunately using the world’s systems is rather a complicated matter. One is ...

Youth Searching For A Role Model is collection of my poems about the youth. The challenges they meet, the youth without role models. When I grew up what I observed was that in the African culture if a mother was widowed or a single parent, her brother or her uncle would be a father figure for the children. In Venda we had elderly men who would rebuke children who bunked school. There words would be "you are running away from school you will suffer when you grow up. If you can't read and write you struggle in life". Then the old man would ask "what is your name my grand-child? Who is your ...
