About the Book
Invincible Horizon was inspired by real life events and fictional revelations, to entertain and educate readers beyond the different perspectives of life within the conceptual walls of our worlds. Also, to revitalize an entertaining twist; a sense of poetic participation to today’s essential discourse to such topics as religion, politics and wars, birth and death, love and romance, race, migration and etc. away from the phantasmal observation of 21st century exceptionalism. This anthology drums out the many socio-political issues as well as some ethnic biases, which have cast vengeful mist, ravaging international and domestic relations; thus, it highlights some of the follies of today’s society. Among the list of poems is a poetic lullaby written by the author and his family, which many parents may find it useful. The book evokes some educational qualities, particularly of colonial/post-colonial Africa with an immigrant’s perspective of the West and beyond.
