<p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Simplicity is represented as a perspective of a poet in this poetry collection </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>entitled Chorus of Simplicity and Other New Poems. The opening </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>poem is titled Blood and Ground. It signifies the era of war going on in </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>the world. Philosophy and personal expressions has played a major role </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>in this poetry collection. Moreover the poet has tried to universalize the </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>personal by giving voice to matters of public concern. Nature is also a </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>part of this collection because Nature is where we exist. Failure isn't a </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>signal to give up says the poet. He drives the motivational vehicle in this </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>poetry collection. Dreams and freedom also make up a theme because </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>humans cannot remain devoid of hope. The poet writes I am not only </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>a history/ But a deep worshipper of my present time. He is trying to </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>be contemporary in nature. There is also a poem on Charles Bukowski </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>in this collection. The poet finds Bukowski very pragmatic as he delves </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>into poetry written by Charles Bukowski. The poet further writes The </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>mad rush of civilization / Cannot abstain the essence of nature. The poet </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>has highlighted nature as a major concern in this modern world. This is a </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>global concern. Furthermore the poet says Outside my window/ There </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>is a natural sunset/ Your painting is just an imitation. This signifies the </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>importance of Mother Nature. The originality of the subject lies in nature </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>and rest is just an imitation; we learn from nature. Learning from nature </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>should be the priority. The poet is concerned about that like a championing </span></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>activist through words.</span></p>
