Sinopsis

From the silent, incomprehensible Void before time began, to the fiery Spark that ignited creation, Wastelands embarks on an epic poetic odyssey through the universe and humanity's tumultuous journey. This isn't just a collection of poems; it's a meticulously crafted narrative that traces existence from its earliest, formless moments, through the miraculous birth of Allotment Earth and the first stirrings of life. Prepare to witness the grand cosmic dance, the delicate balance of nascent ecosystems, and the profound miracle of life taking hold in a chaotic, evolving universe.But as the story progresses, a darker truth emerges. Wastelands fearlessly confronts the human element, exploring the rise of civilization, the allure of power, and the devastating consequences of our choices. Through themes like the Anthropocene's environmental toll, the persistent Bloodshed In War, and the societal Meltdown born from greed and division, the collection exposes the "psychedelic psychosis" of a humanity grappling with its own destructive impulses. It's a poignant exploration of our Unfulfilled Dreams and the paths we've chosen, leading us to question the very essence of progress.Ultimately, Wastelands culminates in a stark, unforgettable vision of humanity's potential demise, returning to the Void from which it began. Yet, within this apocalyptic panorama, the enduring question of love persists—its triumphs, its failures, and its inexplicable power in the face of annihilation. This collection by an innovative indie poet promises a surprising and deeply reflective experience, inviting readers to contemplate the fragility of existence and the timeless battles waged within the human heart.

    The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
    But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
    The great city of London is perhaps unrivalled in its scale and effect on humankind down the centuries.  Its sprawl and its teeming throngs have shaped the world and even how we live today.  With the words of these 10 poets and their insightful, knowing verse we can perhaps begin to understand just why that is.
