    About this ebook

    "Life is a discovery, especially when you find yourself with a background in Business Administration, Hospitality Management, Psychology studies and a major interest in Literature. I did not find poetry but poetry captured me with a silhouette of a pen married to an elegant papyrus. Afflatus is my first poetry book under the creative impulse of humanity and my emotions. Throughout these pages, you may find a shadow of yourself, comfort and motivation to pursue and overcome as well life's obstacles. I recommend you to read this book and Tango your way through life with joy and inspiration.

    Afflatus will take you to a different place with daily life imagery, passion and encouragement. The texts are pure, methaphoric and graceful. I hope you enjoy Afflatus as a genuine creative impulse from my heart."

      Contents

      What if…

      Falseness

      Let me take the lead

      A night at the liquor store

      A life of poverty

      On strike

      Free your nature

      A dance of tango

      Say NO!

      My mother’s grey hair…

      Papa

      In a twinkle

      The stones will shout

      Different visions…

      I want to write for those…

      Rainbow eyes

      The next door neighbor

      I dream…

      Once again

      The rain is getting married

      Letter to a friend

      The chimney

      How dare you sleep?

      Fantasy

      Pull up…

      Don’t fold the flag!

      I hate that pool

      Earth have told me

      O women

      Healthcare

      Rice and Beans

      Recession

      My 38 caliber

      Attack on 30th street

      The First time

      Just do it

      If I could enable Math

      It had to be you

      All about you

      A page of History…

      Madeleine

      Keep running

      Song of Hope

      A Wild Ride

      The lunar eclipse!

      I only have eyes for you

      The Sea

      The science of a mother

      My new family

      My son’s mirror

      Autumn leaves

      THINK

      Never without my son!

      I have fun with my MUSE.

      Outside and here

      A smiling window

      Social deficit

      why

      all the below

      Royal thought

      Dream

      No second death

      Fire me

      To my sons Markly & Alec, my love for you shall live forever.

      To my family, Simone, Garry & Carmela, Marlene, Joe, Gaël, Jeamela (aka Ciboolous), and Garmel Guilloteau with love.

      In loving memory of Luthes Louisdor.

      To God be the glory!
