The Illusion Warrior

Description: This is not your grandfathers poetry. It is spun for the everyman and woman. It is bred of a spiritual nature yet it smiles and laughs and screams. Some are funny some are sad. Some spit in the face of conformity amused at the absurdity of the world whilst seeking a better way. These odes defy conventional structure and content. They rhyme without embarrassment yet experiment unapologetically with such. They convey messages of hope and love and clearer sight. And they challenge the accepted and popular notions of reality and illusion while offering superior alternatives to both. They will amuse and dismay provoke and possibly offend but they will not leave you unchanged. So join me if you will as we accompany The Illusion Warrior on his quest to dispel chimera and discover truth. About the Contributor(s): J.
