Book Description
Joe’s Collectanea by the renowned author Joshua Omeke is an anthology of poems. The pattern of writing expounds interwoven addiction between personal experiences, imaginations, and use of language. Composed of thirty-one poems, the author proposed numerous topics. At an attempt to overview the societal norms, Joshua incorporates reality and figures of speech in a standard practice in several of the poems such as “Anarchiste Diplomatique,” “Ramshackle Emote,” and “Emotions and Idioms” that were a stanza based. Evaluating the critical expectations of his reader, the author also teases through widely accepted experiences that a third of every reader can relate to either personally or by widely heard occurrences in “A Coloured Dream” which evaluates the typical expectations of youths of now from the african community fleeing to western grounds for greener pastures. Because of the sudden drift in storytelling in this masterpiece (Joe’s Collectanea), it is encouraged that every reader evaluate the table of contents before dissecting into the context of Joe’s Collectanea to properly digest according to their present momentum. Further more, Joshua evaluates the symmetrical mechanism that is accustomed to the taxonomy of homo sapiens in the narrative sestina “Life” which provokes its reader through intimidation to think sharply. Another work distinct from the norm is the ode “portrait of her lifestyle” that revamped the respect a typical feminist commands. In addition, works such as “Undies Evolution,” “Problem,” “The Jinn of sahara,” “Tommy, my watch,” and “The Stupor” individually tells a story which sets them as the solid narrative approach the writer confirms his work to be regardless of the poetic theme involved in the spatial formulation. However, each poem were finely drafted, and only exception is the inability for any theatre to convert these words of excellence to a play as it does not reflect a single story nor proposes characters and scenes. Hence, the anthology is a paper mache of ponderous adventures, delving into uncertainty that spooks measure which weighs the mind of each reader as the pages are flipped, and stories are assimilated. Such as “My Body, My Mind” that brings about faith speaking for those who are religious and I enjoy the writer was flexible enough to not associate the poem with a particular religion, rather Joshua was able to tell the story as it is being a believer and philosophers widely accept that every religion believes in God. I confirm the author is a radical, because the previous poem evaluated personal experiences and societal approach in the work “A Friend of Mine” which touches the cores of diversity—switching from talking about diversity into faith, followed by “Ramshackle emote” an exposition of distinct emotions in one topic, ooze’s discombobulations of how far and fast the mind can travel whilst multitasking in thoughts and ideas. Acts like this are encouraged in the literal hemisphere as it outweighs having a particular concept one is known for, which shall soon make their works unintelligible and classed as universal. Compared to Joshua’s style in drafting literature as a work of art, and in an attempt to photograph his abilities as visual art, he would fly as a Basquiat because of his unpredictability. The Collectanea discusses pronounced controversial topics such as Love in the work “Romance in Poetry,” “Long lost love.” Another concern is Labourers affairs in “Danilo the farmboy”, Religion in “A Surrendered Man,” Philosophy with “Composure,” “Flies of wilderness” and “Epiphany of life”, Global Warming with “Roots are before the log pt 2”, COVID-19 with “The Plague in our waves”, travel writing by depicting “Joe’s Collectanea from Ghana side.” There are other works that can be versed as a must read when flipping pages before settling to read all these are “Ache of waters” centered at evaluating struggles and being accustomed to them. In other references the writer tells a story of colonialism in Africa and its neo-colonial practices that stenches the effort of its settlers in the poem “Anarchiste Diplomatique”. With a mild interjection “Grass of our time” centers on cravings by collectors of nicotiana and how they are so attached to the strands regardless of the health risk associated with their perpetual practices. The few titles reviewed in this article are not conjunctional to the table of content, they appeared according to my preference in reviewing Joe’s Collectanea. The author, Joshua Omeke, has shown talent in literature and displayed years of expertise. If permitted, I will propose he continuously releases much more of his archives. Joshua Omeke is a youth of mystical fingers that composes works of poetry as Igor Stravinsky since he has composed masterpieces in almost every topic he had written. He hails from Edo, Nigeria but was a Lagos born individual. And confirms he has been writing for many years, though literal bytes are slightly penetrating the international scenes but remain a gem to the Nigerian hemisphere. He has technical skills in coding, and confirms writing is a passion and will continue to do so even in his old age. Aside writing, he is also a paint artist who draws inspiration from cubism and surrealism.
