Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - TAWNY KINGS IN LIMBO In the twilight and the twittering dawn My life goes flitting like a spotted fawn. A scent of something stalks the tall, dry grass- The fragrance of the rain-I come; I pass. Acacia thorn and zigzag lightning rend And scratch their whistling way into the wind. Ant-castles silhouette the fire-swept plains Where tawny kings in limbo shake their manes. The clouds collapse; musk mixes with the breeze. Birds dart into the hard-knot of the trees. A vulture's wing is passed across the sun. Blood stirs to surly muscle on the run. The lion scans the landscape as it lies, His dignity indifferent to the flies.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Emotional Trendz is a lifetime of uncertainty. Romeo Weeping. A tuff gruff style exemplifies a courageous man with the gifted mission. Romeo Weeping lives in the transition of everyday life. He is no more capable of controlling his emotion than he is driven to write. The following represent a lifetime of a thousand of literary pieces he has composed, it is here you will only begin to understand the why to Romeo Weeping. I would venture to guess that as much as we feel we understand this man, we are so very wrong. He writes not because he needs to, he writes to survive the turbulent world in which he attempts to understand. I'm not sure after meeting him and editing his work that I understand more than the simple fact that he is compelled to appreciate what little he has controlled of. In his own way he understands better than most of us, and shares this with an honesty some people would just refuse to accept. I hope that he writes forever. …

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Chiefdom: the Women's World introduces a method of viewingand understanding art. For centuries, artists have reliedon nature and tradition as their great sources of inspiration.Irregular wooden boards in their natural state are sculpturingresources that are worthy of adoration and adoption. Natureproduces the images of Chiefdom on surfaces of woodenboards and by so doing, establishes the system of chiefdom.The concept upon which these aesthetics and appreciationswere figured out was based on the philosophy of truth whichpresents the materials, their sources and physical appearancesas the basis of these sculptures. Therefore, the need topreserve and present the material was as crucial as the institutionof chiefdom.The style of presentation of these collections in this book centredon simplified realism that settled on plain geometricforms, shapes and lines. Carving technique was at timesinterspersed with the jagged shape of the wood boards, treebark textures, surface perforations and marks from band andcircular saws used in milling the timber into wooden boards.Titles of these relief sculptures were derived from the cultureof Akan-Fante chiefdom and translated into English.The females in these compositions are hyped to all the naturalstatus of chiefdom even though some of the positions are thepreserve of males. Hence, the dignity of the African culture inrelation to Chiefdom is clearly and solidly sourced from theform and imagery produced from naturally shaped woodboards.SAMUEL ADENTWI BENTUM(Ph.D).…
