Th e Chasing Glance appears to be a new venture with a form quite new and alien in the realm of English Poetry. Th e poet sings poignantly and vehemently in his love poems imploring earnestly for the reunion of love, with a predominant note of subjectivity, no doubt. However, it is his other poems, the Nature Poems and other contemplative poems in which the poet has come out with a prophetic voice to the society at large, seeking to reaffi rm the...

Madness is for the popular, those who have people around to notice it. Others will suffer alone, their crimes true crimes with no excuses, their behavior; unacceptable, their rooms are cells and their minds echo the trot, trot, trot of deformed wild horses. They are monsters in the making. They are headlines waiting to happen and they are everywhere.

Love, despair, joy and pain, life is a journey filled with a range of emotion, the strength of which turns moments into memories. To paint a picture of these using the medium of words and invoke a response is the poets craft. If the following touch you in any way, help you view the world from an others perspective, give birth to tears, life to smiles or simply entertains then I have succeeded in my task. Special thanks to Paul Mckeown for supplying...

This is my second poetry book (my first was Somebody Elses Words Were Mine). I have incorporated both up-to-date material and poems that Ive written at least eight years ago in this book. My first book was made up of only old poems from almost two decades ago, which were published in February 2014. On my recent house move, I uncovered more poems that Id written just under a decade ago. I seem to have written in bouts, often unaware that there are...

MASS IN FLUX (Prize of the Greek Writers Society) Mass in flux is called the poets seventh discourse out of the ten books he has written to date. Functioning in the essence of poetry, Dimitris Paraskevopoulos raises his voice like a wheezy cry. He wishes to awaken consciences with his felicitous verses, which always find their target in the readers heart. The poet is a rebel who lays bare the night heading for the suns only recourse. He points out...

The author is trying to justify the title by saying that he is a mere puppet and the puppeteers are Gods. It is not one God but many. Gods of all the four major religion as he has been exposed to only those. His poems do not sound God friendly though! A tinge here and a splash there of their presence is added. The belief is what he speaks about. In human values, in God. The first one is for atheists. The belief in life. The belief to do things in...

Description
To the sea is inspired by people, places and individuals who have stolen my heart. It explores common themes that weave through the complexity of life, creating its rich tapestry. Love and loss feature large, but other threads are present too including hope and dreams. To the seas style is deliberately stark, the imagery bold. The reader may find some of the poems dark, others wistful, and a few maybe will raise a smile. They are written to share...

In times of trouble, you must remember that you are not the only one and to take it easy. When slapped in the face, look into the mirror and say I am who I am, I am what I am. Stay positive and say I believe and Keep on keeping on, nonstop. Take it easy because perseverance is the mother of success and bear in mind that shells collected build warmest castles.

Included in the anthology are previously published poems contained within SECTOR#7 and of Ares and Men, also Sketches and Reflections of 2012. This covers in full the poetic output of the author since 2009. The overall design is a deliberate step away from the abstract modern poetry preoccupied with syllabic dissection and abstract notions to the intentional exclusion of tangible subjects. Modern poetry isn't supposed to make sense, were told, and...
