Life, as it appears Leif Robertsson

Life, as it appears is a collection of poems about just that; how life is affected by the world around us and everything that is constantly going on there. The tone of Life, as it appears seems quite dark, which can easily be explained by how the world around us has changed during the time the poems have been written. War, rearmament, warmongering and a development towards more extreme politics, increased inequality and fewer and fewer democratically governed countries. However, I have made an effort to try to let hope come out in some poems. So do not fear the dark, there is hope for a better world. Quoting Arundhati Roy, Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.
