Opis

"People ruled that "I" is the first and only important letter of the alphabet and, that it shall remain the last.The Era of Altruism is dead and buried. We worship crisp green bills, nuclear bombs, and bodies of eternal youth." - Egocentrism"A World of Encounters" is not your ordinary collection of poetry. It brings the dichotomy between encounters' strangeness and mundaneness to the foreground. We, as humans, do not only come across other people. Our encounters reach far beyond the ordinary to include things, animals, nature, and even take place in the realm of dreams.The poet utilizes various styles, including Haiku, free verse, ekphrasis, and rhyme. The poems elegantly deal with the themes of human connections, the natural world, and the power of imagery. This collection of poems proves that encounters truly encompass a world of their own.
