The company he works for is rapidly losing market share and a junior assistant seems to be the only one with an idea how to fix it. His wife, Vicki, a luxury real-estate dresser, appears to be bending under the pressures of constructing an image of perfect happiness both at work and at home.

Download or read book Fearsome King Rides written by Aiye-ko ooto and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-02-02 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If there is a word that subtly underscore the currency of this anthology titled "Fearsome King Rides", it's freedom. Therefore, it makes sense to dedicate such a book to Dr Martin Luther King Jr. Who led the coloreds in their fight against inequality, segregation and racism in North America. The use of fearsome and king in the same breath, creates an oxymoronic expression since Dr King stood for non-violence. The pun intended is that a king by coincidence is fearsome. Which is why people do what he demands! This book demands that you follow the author Aiyeko-ooto into our world, where the struggle for freedom is still present. Specially, in this poem collection Aiyeko-ooto compiles an emotional segment "paradox of hate" on topics relating to the struggle for freedom. Some extracts of MLK speech notes or letters are included for accent. This anthology is in five movements. "Vestiges of divergence", "cracks along life's path", "paradox of hate", "lovers' tussles" and "satirizing human mortality".
