    About this ebook

    I sat by a sea—
    I became a city,
    Me city, begetting more,
    I, a commoner of today,
    a jungle of steel and concrete,
    I sit by the sea... .

    The first book in its series, Akin by the Sea is a collection contemplating the author's relationship with nature.
