Do men need poems? Is the gender of brawn and ‘can-do’ really a candidate for honeyed verse? Obviously yes. Through the centuries men seem to dominate the writing of poetry. From books of epics to quatrains of love poetry it seemed to be a man’s world. His domain. A volume purely for men, to show other facets of their personalities and characters seems to be an obvious choice. One verse fits all is, in fact, far removed from the truth. Men needs words. They need support, understanding as well as goals, ambition and structure. They need purpose, desire; the need to love and be loved.

Here are some of Shakespeare's finest speeches performed by one of the greatest Shakespearean actors of this century. It ranges from the youth of Jaques' introduction to life, 'All the world's a stage!' in ""As You Like It"" to the aged Prospero's goodbye to Ariel and Shakespeare's own farewell...

इन कविताओं में एक भरा-पूरा लोक है, ख़ुद के अलावा पूरा परिवार है, माँ-बाबू-बीवी-बच्चे हैं, नींबू-खीरा-चाय-बिस्कुट हैं, मित्रगण हैं, अजनबी लोग हैं, आबाद दुनिया है, लेकिन अकेलेपन का एक अहसास अनवरत चलता रहता है।

This collection crafts a narrative that encompasses the different aspects of a BLACK MAN. Each section is diverse and unique but tells the tale of the whole man, the whole person. I'm hopeful this will change the way we're viewed in the eyes of some. For we're not merely the sum of our parts. We're people, we're men. We each have a purpose, families, and friends. We have hearts, flaws, and strengths too. We have joys and talents, just like you.

Fatherhood is supposed to be a remarkable experience for a man. Like any relationship, the one between a father and his son can be complex. Add the mistakes, blend the emotions, shake up the past, and the present gets really tense. Just ask Mr. Peterson, Mr. Woods, and Mr. Finley. The richest men are always seen as the ones with the most money in the bank. The truth is that fathers are the planters of many seeds. When the dirt of the earth buries them all, it will take the love of a forgiving man to help them grow.

In Time and Songs of the River Men, Chinaka philosophises existence with an almost unflinching enthusiasm that transcends wandering, for although he describes himself as a "wanderer," it's obvious that the wealth of experience and philosophical insights engrafted in the poems surpass wandering, especially the metaphysical poems about 'life,' 'death,' and 'time'-the very essence of being. Chinaka puts on the gift of garb of an existentialist here.
