Poetry is a gift, one we give to the world without expecting anything in return.
In the Metrophobia Collection, I try to push the boundaries of poetry. From poems written in code to thrilling life sagas, each book is an expression of my creative drive.
If you are tired of the same, boring old poetry that you read in school, then you've come to the right place.
And remember, fear is your friend...
