From African Plains to American Ways: New Era Poems

By Athanasius Ohaya

From African Plains to American Ways: New Era Poems. As a child I observed adults and teenagers languishing in agony of hate and mistrust. Ever since then I have not stopped been amazed by the emptiness of human relations. The treatment people receive from fellow human being still remains tantamount to animalism. Perturbed and at times flabbergasted by human ignorance, I see now that nature is gradually dying, cultures heading for extinction and retrenching in alarming rate. Bolstered by all these events and as a student of human condition, I have created this potpourri of poetry book titled: "From African Plains to American Ways:New Era Poems," to highlight the conflicting natural phenomena in the land of the homosapiens for general connsumption. People, look around, and you will discover that world Philosophies are being distorted or obliterated from human imagination on daily basis. Many vises and unnecessary issues providence gave for our happy existence are being chased around, and confusion, chaos, and anarchy are growing and sanity is being clobbered to craziness world over. The stage for public dialogue fashioned on this poetic fit is assured. When the world is melting away under the human weight and wastes, greed, hatred, selfishness, appalling human conditions, exacerbated by victimizers, we mustnt fold our hands and watch and feeling pity for ourselves. We must fight back! This book of New Era Poems brings an aroma of creative debate to divert our ineptitude by romancing our human senses for positive action. This book of poems was written to reprogram the past-gone-crazy lifestyles so prevalent and pervading our order of reasoning. The horrendous events the world is now experiencing are not only demoralizing and hazardously disturbing; the ideas being generated by decaying human morals of present times are alarming. Yet, New Era Poems book is designed to recreate new life full of joy and humor in peoples lives. Imagine! This book is broken into three sections of Cultural, Natural and Philosophical Rituals. There are enough creatures of poems in this book woven to go around for any type of mood desires life might dish out any moment for you--the reader: For instance, when youre feeling in high gear in life, reading "Wind and Breeze Colliding In My Shoes." Itd send you feeling like you are skiing in cloud-seven; its full of life imageries and imaginations. If youre swimming in the ocean of love, try reading "Value of Love," it will sweeten up your day. If you want to talk about world events, "Soaring Bird of Bride" will lifts you higher and higher; and many, many more hot poems and prose, painted in colorful beauty of nature and intelligent design; all will brighten your every chosen moment. This artistic phantom and pigmented linguistic writing showcase, filled with parade of rhythms, sandwiched in fictional thrillers of words and stories, designed in captivating folklores of modern prose and poems are delicious! All ideas and knowledge, all messages in this poems are coated with powerful imaginations. The foundation this book of New Era Poems is built on is a concrete loaded with artwork heralding good feelings and otherwise lamenting wasteful intelligence providence bestowed in humans in the beginning of time in the form of family ties, bravery, friendship, love and choices.

Reading these poems and prose will give you much doses of cheers, motivation, inspiration, elevation of issues for you to think about for your soul and spirit, while at the same time dishes out inciting, provoking educated political debates and awareness about the way we live. As a result of the marriage of ideas long celebrated between the United States of America and Motherland Africa, many Africans are yet to be liberated from naivete foreign domination!
