About the Book

The world we live in is like your local pub - a place for the varied people who populate the surrounding area to hang out, have a drink, and get along, regardless of race, creed, color, religion, whatever the difference. Our culture has become quick to demand respect but reticent to give it. It's a vicious circle. And the brief time that we all spend here is the transience because our time here is fleeting, at least in the totality of it all. We should spend our brief time here loving others, respecting each other, cherishing the beauty all around us, challenging ourselves, and reflecting upon our mistakes, our past, and our actions. The Pub of Transience is a collection of poems from writer G Damala. The poem topics are varied, ranging from self-reflection ("I Myself") to privilege ("Entitlement") to erotic arousal ("The Grain of Sand") to a stellar metaphor for love ("Love Is a Binary Star System"). Damala takes on a trip with him to Sin City ("Las Vegas"), through lust and yearning ("The First of Forever"), on a crazy bus ride through Europe ("The Morning Bus"), and to your local library ("Public Libraries"). Damala also muses on the good and bad in relationships, he tries to seek advice in the bottom of pints of stout, and speaks about the various aspects of patriotism and politics. Then there is the title poem, "The Pub of Transience", a plea that we all should heed in this day and age - to treat our planet and fellow humans with respect, love, and dignity. There is sarcasm, satire, and acerbic humor intertwined with pain, anger, despair, and longing ensconced next to cleverness, wit, charm, and inquisitiveness. Damala caps off this eclectic piece of work with a collection of haikus. These are witty, seductive, playful, tantalizing, relative, and utterly fun. There are lessons to be found here, as well, some of it indirect and some of it unmistakably transparent. With a poem to suit your mood, a haiku to enhance your viewpoint, or an observation to challenge your biases both overt and covert, The Pub of Transience is a collection of modern verse to put in your pocket for reading anywhere on this rotating pub of transience.
