World Poetry

This is the third book in this Evil World series. It is a conglomeration of miscellaneous poems written for friends and dealing with poem suggestions from those friends.

The poems concerning those event topics may be a bit biting to those that are not "Red-Pilled." Truth will be the qualifier. A new world is in our near future, and the truth is coming to the surface.

Forever England explores Rupert Brooke’s life, from schooldays to the Great War, and in so doing builds a remarkable picture of a long-lost England and a generation’s descent into war. Brooke’s poems emerge dramatically from a tangled web of love, friendship, mental illness and politics. He reveals also the existence of a previously unrecorded love child from a South Seas romance. The WW1 legend was largely brought about by the words of one of his sonnets: "If I should die, think only this of me/That there’s some corner of a foreign field that is forever England".
