Review of Soul Resuscitation/Allusions to Simplicity by Angel Meredith/Koshy A.V.

A Review of Soul Resuscitation, 50 poems, written by Angel Meredith and Dr. AV Koshy, (published by Barry Mowles & Destiny 2 Write Publications) two writers from the Jouralspace era. I am a voracious reader of AV Koshy but am not familiar at all with Angel Meredith’s writings. Both are well written but this book does not cling to my heart nor stir my imagination as I am accustomed to in the poetry by Koshy.

The book is written in two parts: the first Angel’s poems. Death Bed has wonderful imagery and was understandably enjoyed because of my daily dealings with death. Beautifully described. Insipid is a strong and vivid painting of our modern societal breakdown. Watchers left me hanging on a branch wondering if it would break. I was not impressed with the finale. Her poems become predictable.

My expectation from Dr. Koshy is to saturate my imagination with deliciously creative illusions. In this particular book I found this with only several of his pieces. After Rilke is a good example of that. Reference to the gang-rape victim in India is made in the poem Nirbhaya. Well done. Koshy has a way of making things vanishand two of these types are found in this book, “How to make love vanish”, and “How to make myself vanish”. He has a poem out in another collection, “How to make a poem vanish”. I like his ability to steer the reader off course. Far off course. Unfortunately I do not find that much here.
References to death are made by both writers in this collection as are descriptions of the decaying of society.

Angel and Koshy are talented writers and leave just enough here, however, to lead the reader wondering what may be produced by them in the future.
