Lamentations from Sikaman
Lamentations from Sikaman
James Amoateng
This wonderful anthology of poems, Lamentations from Sikaman, covers everything from day-to-day activities to the environment to relationships. The author asks, "Isn’t it strange that a path is smooth, but is still full of pits? But no, that is reality. It tells me about the complexities of life. Put simply, all that glitters is not gold." More precisely, one of the poems tells the tale of a man who leaves his wife for a younger woman. But the young lady screws up his life so badly and he wants to return to his wife. Lamentations, indeed.

Prince of paranoia
Prince of paranoia
J.D. Lovegood

I am drowning here, you are just describing the water.

Like a mirror, a door to the world in a subjective way. With the belief that objectivity does not exist. Looking through the matrix, hooked to the machines. From outside he controls them, he enters the game but is not part of it. You enter to save the world from the virus, but sometimes you realize that you are the benign virus «in a polluted world».
