Reseña del libro "The Song That Is Stuck ...In My Throat: A Collection of 'Crispy' Poems, Vol. 1-3"
Sue Kappa deems important, the responsibility of the poetry platform to give vent to the suppressed and depressed to voice out their grievances, pour out their unshed tears and inner desires in the free verse style. Here, he knits together a kaleidoscopic tapestry of mood and style in the treatment of the themes of Nature, Love, Disappointment, Disillusionment, Resilience, Perseverance and Conviviality among others. They range from the town-crier mood which employs rants on the streets unrestrained, registering protest, complaints and reservations, somber reflections in the prayer/supplication mood of meditation and the uninhibited show of appreciation and joy in colloquial, chatty, entertaining tone. In this three-in-one volume collection of poems christened The Song that is Stuck in ma Throat, Kappa brings to life ideas, observations and human acts that do not easily occur to us as lively subjects or serious matters to engage our curious attention. He thus succeeds in stirring our imagination riot about the possibility of everything around us including the ones we easily ignore and the taken-for-granted aspects of our daily lives' interactions serving as subject matter for a poem. And in this deep-fry style of going deep into subjects treated, we encounter the different strands of the patterns of responses and outcomes we expect as a comforting package from a professional counsellor such as pieces of advice, consoling words, moods tickling us to laughter and hilarity, and a deep reflection on our own lives. Sometimes, it gets so close as though Kappa was just behind, following us.
