Rebel Planet
A collection of modern poetry - some for entertainment, and some more thought provoking. Here, the poems are presented in a  variety of forms, and the author has made effective use of meter and rhyme, to provide a broad range of material.  [Currently unpublished].

Long ago the world was wild
swathed with hair – an untamed child
It did whatever it wanted to do – 
quakes, volcanoes, hurricanes too

It had no sense of grace, you see
(not at all like Mercury)
A rebel planet with no name – 
fierce, destructive – quite untamed
