Songs of the Mind's Mind

Songs of the Mind's Mind is a revealing collection of fifty-four poems exposing, with dexterity, varying facets of a seasoned bard's Muse. Built on a three-tier structure that enhances thought and style, the poetic mind reveals diverse, but related fields such as society, love and politics.
While decrying the wretchedness of his compatriots, which is often a fall out of their ignorance, the poet believes that love is the ingredient that can help humanity stand up to life's challenges. The fervent hope that change is inevitable, even with the disgusting state of affairs in the post colony, is evident in the collection. Songs of the Mind's Mind is John Ngong Kum Ngong's fifth collection.
