Download or read book The Dark Side of Silence written by Raymond Poole and published by Orla Kelly Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of poetry is dedicated to all those children across the globe who struggle on a daily basis for food, shelter, comfort, and recognition of their existence. During a time of global pandemic, while First World countries rush to vaccinate their citizens, it is important to realise that none of us are safe until we are all safe. All of the author's profits raised from the sales of this book will be donated to UNICEF Ireland to help support those children whose lives are as important as those of our children and grandchildren. Mainly written under the light of the moon, The Dark Side of Silence is a poignant, contemplative reflection of the author's journey in life to date. Raymond has abandoned any formal structure whilst developing these poems so as to celebrate his neurodiversity from dyslexia and autism. In summary it is a celebration of the individualism that exists in us all. The Dark Side Of Silence is a reminder of how vulnerable each of us is; but it is also a lesson about beauty and inner growth, and how they exist within that vulnerability, once we welcome it as a core part of what we are, and then immerse ourselves in it in the hope of finding out who we truly are. If we run away from our vulnerability, then we are running away from life. We cannot be truly alive unless we are truly vulnerable at the same time. Nor can we be truly alive if we lose the connection to the child each one of us once was, and, in so many ways, will always be. That child has made each of us who we are today.

Book excerpt: The City is ancient, layers upon layers. Once a thriving metropolis, it sprawled beyond its bounds, inciting endless wars and creating a barren wasteland of what was once green and productive. In the center of the City lives the emperor, a man in his prime though he should be very old. Some grimly speculate that he is no longer human, if he ever was. A small number have come to the desperate conclusion that the only way to stop the war is to end the emperor’s unnaturally long life. From the mazelike sewers below the City to the blood-soaked fields of battle, the rebels pin their hopes on one man—Shuskara. The emperor’s former general, he was betrayed long ago and is believed to be dead. But he has survived, hiding from his immortal foe. The time has come for him to engage in one final battle to free the City from the creature who dwells at its heart, pulling the strings that keep the land drenched in gore.
