She is the Great-Niece of Kahlil Gibran, also known as the ‘Great Prophet’ and Poet, born on Mount Lebanon. R. J. tends to view the World through rose, coloured glasses. She has to do it with 20/15 vision in both eyes, in her adult years, and speaks of highly, visual definition. Things that, the average viewer would not describe in such detail, shall we say. She’s not sure if it’s a blessing or a curse? Let us pray not the latter!
R. J. dominates through rhyme in ‘Poetry in Motion’ however, an underlying hint of Satire is beginning to emerge in an over all innuendo of flavor, style and implication. Satire! In Poetry? When Satire, occasionally takes root in writing, as a rare medium, the work itself attracts a lot of criticism. It implicates the reader, into its own naturalistic theme. It seeks to inform, entertain and justify itself and doesn’t much consider an alternative outcome, but leaves the mental imagery in your mind, pretty much, as is, but still targets the object of desire or ridicule, merely to be exposed. The flip side to this Satirical quality, is a highly, articulate Romantic, who believes it, truly is a ‘Hopeless’ one, yet the deep meaning can fill your senses with a kind of tender reality that is so seldom captured in verse form. The sweetest breath of sincerity, weeps from the depth of your Soule, and heart struck poignancy absorbs the realm of possibility, into the subtle longing for the actual experience? Compelling and influencing!
Further, her poetry is truly reflective of the times. It could be that her insight, in these ever changing and evolving times, that we live in, may carry a historical value, not yet realized, as mainstream insight and overall consciousness of the age. A historical measure, yet mindless persuasion quells its presence from being suggestive. Corruption suggests itself, yet a deeper Love casts its spell, and over rides the possibility of it succeeding.view less
