Our lives are complex hives of perceptions, actions, reactions and analyses. Each of us feels the heat of an unrelenting, watching world judging us at every moment, ascribing motives and character to us which we seek to either enhance or dispute.

We are creatures desirous of validation and approval as much as we are of habit. These influences cast looming shadows on the core of our being. They are the solid angles which shape and sculpt our character. They are our Steradians. "O how the world stares in a thousand ways of judgment!O how the hurricane hides in that breeze untamed!"Are these shadows mere penumbra of false influences to be shrugged off, or do they carry visceral punches reshaping our character, every passing moment of our days?Following the pattern laid down by "The Ninth Pawn of White - A Book of Unwritten Verses", the present collection ranges over the same structure of poetic thoughts - singlets, couplets, quatrains - all designed to evoke a participative experience in the reader. In isolation, they are hesitant thoughts, uncertain of their own meaning and pith. All they request is the reader's immersion in their figurative pond, making the author's craft invisible. They wish not to convey an experience of cleverness or a flash of emotion at an arm's length; their fulfillment lies in their connection with what the reader's pen seeks to write.
