The poems in this book reflect on my journey through life, love, the Arab Spring and Occupy Movement. As a socialist and one of the 99%, this book is about love, social revolution and the
eternal struggle for equality and justice. In these poems, I look into and out of the wooded windows of the past, present and future and become romantic and erotic, political and spiritual. I am a pagan peasant in this poverty and paradise, chained to the same land in serfdom, but trying to climb the tree of life and reach the branches of freedom.

Reviews

[Lauretta]

Strider Marcus Jones is the Poet Laureate of Love!

[Paula]

An excellent read! These poems are a delightful illustration of someone who has obviously journeyed through the many ups and downs of life. Each poem is a glimpse into the life of a Man who is not afraid to express His deepest desires and darkest fears. From erotic encounters and tender loving moments to the world of politics, this book has it all. Easily identifiable, I myself find many of my own thoughts and emotions echoing through the pages. Thoroughly enjoyable, Thank You! xx

[Gavin Wilson]

Sit down and enjoy poetry at its most fluent and best. A veritable tour de force of language, prose and literature.

[Gregg Norman]

To be able to rhyme without contrivance is a gift, a talent not found in many poets. Strider Marcus Jones does it effortlessly. He is a hugely talented poet whose verse is smooth, melodic, sensuous. I thoroughly enjoyed this collection.
