Rome Aboh�s poetry unmistakably enwraps the condition of the politically and socially cannibalised segment of his society; and the beauty of the verse radiates from his facility with language as the stylist and linguist. The section �patriotism� with such poems as �hour of truth� aptly brings out the socially obligatory role of the poets whose mission goes beyond versifying and sharing their personal fantasies and urges. Similarly the poem �letter to the mp� echoes the agonies of the common masses who feel deceived by the ruling elite in their so-called democratic nations.
