    About this ebook

    Coup `66 is a collection of unforgettable poignancies in the sense that it contains sad and piteous poems; I will want the world to take note of. Naturally, no one will like to read something that could sadden his mood but no matter how we shun it, it still remains in our mind and in the world, therefore let’s throw away pretence and identify these sad things that are crying for a change.
    Considering its name “COUP `66,” we all know that coup is a forceful change of government, most times from democracy to dictatorship. In other words, “COUP `66” is a collection of poems that will forcefully change ones mood from happiness to sadness: an overthrow of moods.
