  • A Storm Wave’s Reach
    Felix Bongjoh

They flee to distant islands, to other count...

  • Ebbing Out, Bouncing Back
    Felix Bongjoh
    The thread that holds life together is one that sometimes breaks loose and diminishes its grip until it is no longer a force that matters. It has to be rewound well enough to hold firm again.

  • Feathers of Fur
    Felix Bongjoh
    Most of the poems in the book touch on feathers and fur, which symbolically represents the strength of the lion or leopard as opposed to the less aggressive force of birds, especially the chicken.
