All Sorts, Lies of a Kind
By Lars L. Lien

About this ebook
A daimon, and the rising sun,
blast upon the liquid surface,
while a woman is all mouth
and seawards,
her sting is heaven-sent, and then,
the sun dies -
its sharpening softness -
its surface
is turned to crust;
solemnly, feelings escalate,
again theres thirst,
and how she finds him -
in close orbit to Earths mother -
the moonman, in the midst
of darkness.
Lars L. Lien
Lars L. Lien insists he’s among the world’s oppressed. For shared eminence and impact—All Sorts, Lies of a Kind is unrivalled—Lien’s poetic expression reveals a fine-tuned voice that is bound to stir the reader’s curiosity. Society is sick, claims the poet, and the world and its variegated stages a troublesome, irking place. Man is an unlikely being; the living soul, ambitious. The call and wrathful nature of the soul destined to free itself from the herdlike state; the ways of a materialistic, cataclysmic world is immediate throughout and given prominence —his poetic imagery is marked by dissilience and vividness, yet there’s room for thought in Lien’s work.
