Louder Prayers

<p>Full Description </p><p>To some extent <strong>Louder Prayers</strong> resembles an earlier anthology of my work entitled '<strong>Gain of Function</strong>' with its reliance on new poetry some of it first published on the internet. Yet it also has a strong relationship to my previous volume called '<strong>Summer With The Gods</strong>' - where this new book asks for '<strong>Louder Prayers</strong>' combined with a further search around the edges - those still unexplored areas not quite touched on before. It is certainly a further development of my writing style and although its physical presentation is designed to give the feel of a prayer book it is an honest proposition and not in any way disrespectful sarcastic or facetious. </p><p>Another strength of these poems is a legitimate need to touch on a number of social issues - coming at them in abstract ways. Since I do not favour any political or social leaning there is no attempt to sway the reader. Yet I feel my observations political or religious need at least to be aired - or what's the point? In no way is my work an exercise in demonstrating pc notions or pseudo-religious guidance but words must be allowed to identify potential problems and quasi current situations in a critical or merely heuristic sense.</p>
