Orogeny: A Collection of Poems Created with Conceit

by Saroop Moughal

‘The Poet is the one who breathes. Every breath is a sensation, without being condescending or pedantic; every breath is a sensation. This, I cannot stress enough’. An Orogeny - a mountain building event. A geological term which describes tectonic plates colliding with one another to create an upheaval. Follow the mind of this writer, who through his poetry explores his own emotional eruptions. This debut collection is the beginning of what will be concluded as words felt like mountains. Rather a journey and less of a book, this title explores the complexities of basic human emotions through prose; conceptualising significant personal events in the author's life by creating a collection created by conceit. Many of the author's influences have been derived from classical poets such as Voltaire, Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe and Walt Whitman.
