Snapsongs was originally published in different media outlets, these poems are prime instances of contemporary chronicles and history in motion, the types that often come from a poet who takes on the combined roles of griot and town crier. From the gnomic, epigrammatic “Snapsongs” to the bitingly satirical “Homegroans” and “Foreignflares”, here are poems which grip the reader/listener’s attention with their lyricism, visionay thrust, and humanist engagements. A humorous streak animates the songs, energized by a reflective temper and socio-political urgency. This volume provides yet another feast of words and wisdom from the “Bard of the Tabloid Platform” who has never stopped singing and stinging in the past four decades.
