The Lurking Eyes of Death and other Death Poems is a collection of death poems that centres its themes on the lingering of death, the effects - pre and post. Its mood is that of sadness, stress, confusion and other dilapidating factors. "The Lurking Eyes of Death" is the major piece in this work, covering pages, narrating how death parades around looking for blood to sip, how it perches on the rooftops and survey who to attack next. Other death poems helped in adding more adjectives to the major poem, some buttressing the laid down-s of the major. Most of them where born out of sorrow - The Day Died was written after I lost my granny. They all tell about my mind set towards the concept of death. -Chukwuemeke Bright Nduka Author.

Instead of writing a love story, the poet persona decides to tell the story in poetry. The poem collection is a poetic expression of events that took place in the love life of a young man who went into a love affair because his peers are doing the same.

Poetry for women, men, poetry for young boys and young girls. Take a bit of the love expressions embedded in the poetry collection, cool.
