RiddlesAndRhymes - Joseph Lowe - Bog

Contemporary Poetry - Urban Poetry - Surreal Poetry - Underground Poems - Anti-War Poetry - Social Commentary Poems - Poetry About Life - Modern Poetry - Descriptive Poetry - Edgy Poems This contemporary poetry book perhaps has a little bit of all of the above. "RiddlesAndRhymes" is a collection of modern underground poetry, at times taking a surrealistic slant with some hard hitting poetry about life. From 'The Grizzly Grocer', 'Come to Life' through to 'PC Plod's Not Odd' and 'Testomorphasis' many of these gritty urban poems reach out to the madness of life and quite a few have an anti-war sentiment. Anti-war poetry is often written by people who have first hand experience. In this case Joseph's thoughts and remarks are based on an inner feeling that there must be other ways than war. Not all the poems touch on this subject and are just one persons views on what is around us all. We warned this is poetry about life with a hammer and a rusty nail. A recent review on Amazon sums up this collection of contemporary poems: "Full of energy and anger about the world we live in, these are strong, rhythmical poems that demand to be read aloud."
