New book of poetry takes you through a journey of unearthing society's most contemplated topics
ROCKVILLE, Md., April 11, 2023 Billie Bioku's debut poetry collection, "We Ponder: Unsettled Minds" (published by Archway Publishing), takes readers through a journey of unearthing some of society's most contemplated topics.
This book is a reflection of classic poetry with abstract concepts. It touches on relatable subjects faced by all humans such as love, spirituality/religion, heartbreak, mental illness, and more. The poems are easy to read, yet in many instances difficult to comprehend.
When asked what she wants readers to take away from the book, the author says, "I want readers to know that they are not alone in the experiences they go through, and that I hope this book helps them to become more vulnerable with themselves and others."
An excerpt from the poem "Sonder Feeling" reads:
I sit down on a bench and take sips from my London fog latte.
The juxtaposition between hearing chatter from passerby and my silence is overwhelming.
It is peaceful knowing that I do not have to engage.
That I can watch, while being reticent of my emotions.
I think about it every day.
How somehow, we are all interconnected in this world.
All 8 billion of us.
