Full Description
Sometimes, You Say the Strangest Things - and John
Eaton listens, laughs, and then crafts them into poetry that hits home. In his
sixth collection of verse, Eaton presents one hundred poems that blend sharp
wit, playful wordplay, and self-deprecating humour to explore life's quirks and
contradictions.
Whether he's taking aim at the absurdities of social media,
unravelling mind games, or dissecting the buzzwords of modern life (Fake News
or Health and Safety, anyone?), Eaton's work is a masterclass in clever
observation. He pokes fun at authority, modern mores, and the daily grind with
a light touch and a wicked grin, transforming the mundane into the magnificent
and the ridiculous into the relatable.
Perfect for adults, kids and particularly
business folk, You Say the Strangest Things is your ideal
pick-me-up-whether you need a laugh, a moment of reflection, a business byword,
or just a reminder that sometimes, life really is stranger than fiction.
Prepare to smile, think, and maybe even see the world a little differently. Here is one of John's shorter
poems:
Happy New Year
My New Year
resolution is to make a contribution,
but to whom, to
what, to where, why and to when?
Last year it
was an illusion, this year it is a solution,
and next year I start it all again.
