  Lift yourself into a new realm of lateral make-believe world. 
  Indulge in artistic poetry that will lift you. 
  Become disassociated from the matter of fact daily life that confronts us all today.

  An ideal book to have at your side, whether at home, relaxing on the beach, or on holiday lazing in any of the seasons of the year! Awake to an alternative mode of leisure of novel reading. Absorb and drift away with wordsmith that beckons you into a floating paradise of your very own. 
  Poetry affords one to a taste of strength of suggestion that whets the palate very differently to the manner in which a fictional or non-fictional novel cannot achieve. Enjoy your journey through this book as your reading material companion. 
  Which one will you choose as your favourite?

  I hate to be the one to tell you...

  It's a shame, isn't it, to have to rat on your neighbours? Upsetting to find out that both your husband and the dog have been telling you lies? And I hate to be the one to tell you this, but there are bad people everywhere, at large, going about their business. Financial insolvents on online-dating sites, contortionist plumbers with a point to prove, and a bloke named Barry, from Halifax, who is singlehandedly ruining the livelihoods of perfectly legitimate psychics.
  It's not all bad news though, there are sham marriages to look forward to, ducklings to be held captive by, and that dog, well, you can always put him up for sale. Life, I'm afraid, is based on nothing more than slippery moorings, and this debut pamphlet breaks the bad news with humour and a twist of darkness.
  The poems in this collection erupt with beauty and emotional resonance. These are graceful meditations on human relationships with each other and with themselves. The voice of the poet is strikingly unique, but there are also moments when it seems to be coming from within us, from the place of personal wonder: 'Outside a wood-pigeon coos monotonously / its slung together nest is hidden from view, / just like your knickers are, mostly, / and your feelings about your mother.' – Romalyn Ante, co-judge of the International Book & Pamphlet Competition

  The Prophet is a book of prose poetry that made its Lebanese-American author Kahlil Gibran famous.
  Originally published in 1923, the book begins with a man named Almustafa living on an island called Orphalese. Locals consider him something of a sage, but he is from elsewhere and has waited twelve years for the right ship to take him home. From a hill above the town, he sees his ship coming into the harbor, and realizes his sadness at leaving the people he has come to know. The elders of the city ask him not to leave. He is asked to tell of his philosophy of life before he goes, to speak his truth to the crowds gathered. What he has to say forms the basis of the book.
