Sober Reflections is a collection of
85
poems. It is divided into three phases: Episode I
(1993-
1999).
This section has
37
poems. Episode II
(2000-2006)
has
32
poems, while Episode III
(2007-2008)
has
16
poems.
Each of these episodes is an account or a description of a phase in time, an event, a situation
or period of time in the poet s experience in life that is important or interesting in some way
which the poet wishes to communicate to his readership. As the title of the anthology implies,
it is a poet s reflection on experiences over periods of time or happenstances of life.
In Sober Reflections, there is a unique feature that cuts across the whole poems and
which holds the reader spellbound
—
the poet s use of simple diction, which enhances good
understanding and motivates the reader to read onto the end of each poem and the anthology
at large. His poetic diction which includes words, phrases, length and complexity of sentences
or choice of words are not abstract; not far-fetched or bookish. They are current in the ordinary
conversation of the time. His deliberate use of simple words, features, analogies and images
drive home his messages more concretely.
-Professor Saint Gbilekaa
