ISA N Wo Ru U...: The Boiling Cauldron (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798843441531)

ISA N WO RU U (Yoruba Language) ... subtitled "The Boiling Cauldron" in English Language is a collection of poems gathered in this single carefully thoughtful titled book as a radical response to the socio-cultural, political, economic, environmental, emotional and psychological malaise and injustice perpetrated by man's inhumanity against man. This body of work is created to address the unending issues of fundamental human rights violations unjustifiably committed against harmless innocent individuals and groups of people around the world, especially the children, women, the aged and the physically challenged who have been at the most receiving end of these crimes against humanity. The goal of this piece of work is to share my heartsongs with the world and hope they can relate to it and in turn share with their loved ones, so as to make this world a better place to live.
"ISA N WO RU U...The Boiling Cauldron" is also a body of long bottled heartfelt emotions which have been bubbling for expression for many years, but today, "ISA N WO RU U...The Boiling Cauldron" is finally born, crying so loud against the endless menace of the modern warfare putting the lives of the whole of humanity at stake. Social, economic, political, military, scientific and psychological warfare are such warfare that have characterized genocide, displacements of people from their ancestral Lands and homes, injustice, slavery, exploitation, cruelty and insensitivity to the fundamental rights of fellow man and these have cost them permanent physical, mental and psychological damage.
In other words, "Boiling Cauldron" is a chain of poems in form of lamentations, outright condemnations, stiff resistance and urgent call for a total halt to these unnecessary warfare which have consequently placed too much unbearable burden upon the existence of the whole of humanity. The dehumanizing wound inflicted on the Indigenous Africans by the imperial colonialists are still fresh on our memories; the 1930s holocaust in Germany; the Jewish pogrom in Europe; the Vietnam and the Hiroshima horror! The Bosnian, Sarajevo, Kashmir and the Somalia Nightmares; Delta Storm! Twin Towers, the continuing boiling cauldrons of the Middle - East predicaments, especially in Palestine. Also, at present, mankind is in deep shock and grief as the power brokers of the so called supper powers of the world endlessly clash in war of attrition while Ukraine is being mindlessly ravaged and torn apart by war, and the raging menace of socio-political and ethno-religious violence and the issue of monster terrorism that have refused to leave Nigerian scene through deliberate attempt of ethnic cleansing and genocide, all are constant reminders of the devastating effects of these unjustifiable warfare.
Therefore, it is pertinent to advance at this junction that "warfare cripples human being. Not only does the fury of war disable those who are alive, but it also cuts off the future" *. Hence, all stake holders must rise up now to nail to the ground, this demonic warfare, because mankind no longer can carry the burden of the life draining hot emission from this boiling cauldron.
