eccentric
This book is a short compendium of the poems I have written over the years. I refer to them as eccentric because they all came as strange ideas at different times, during my quiet moments. The poems are coated in metaphors and described as weird cos they don't follow the conventional poetic patterns. The ideas are unconventional!
