Imagine we’re going another level Flying high as I drive the bevel To go deep into the sacred tunnel No boundaries & no manners Where your peaks start to tremble That rhythm & those tremors The earth seems to crumble And the skies start to rumble When the stage turns into the jungle As I crank you humble

I am delighted to share this incredible poetry book “Lightning Rhymes” by the very talented writer Navin Manik @navinspoetry_
Reading through the pages I felt like I was being given a glimpse into the writer’s soul. Navin has a way of expressing his innermost feelings through his rhythmic poetry.
I have recited a small verse from the poem titled “Lightning Rhymes”.
Thank you Navin for sharing your talent with the world.

Don’t walk like this in your silky skin infront of me Incredible My craving for you is crawling up a mountain frenzy Irresistible You’re looking red hot & my eyes are burning destiny Inflammable
Gaining your trust while I throw you with my rawness on that turf Animal Messing with your mind & body while I pull your messy hair Animal Tearing your peace in pieces while I look deep into your big eyes Animal
Whispering my twisted words in your ears to reach your red crystal Sensitive Sketching on you with my sharp nails to make you whisper pain with your deep vocals Sensual Shaking you intensely to awaken your senses to make a connection with your crying soul Spectacle
Biting your tender flesh slowly to calm my hunger with my hungry teeth Oh, I feel like an animal My lips are sticky & shaded as I taste the thick red that you’re bleeding I think, I’m an animal Even the wind under dark heavens of hell is howling crazy Yeah, I’m an animal
I see you in my mirror & my lens is bleeding red visuals Ahh, I’m so bloodthirsty animal I see you in my shadow & I look like that fiery dragon Wo, I’m so scary animal I see you shattered & scattered all over my dark ground Rahh, I’m so brutal animal I disappear in darkness after killing your dying soul to be one with the new you & eternity Yeah, I am that tainted & untamed animal

The sign I sight seems like the cyanide of my sigh night with my dimmed & silent eyesight
I begin to sideline the landslide by sending the signals to my left side of my semi numb site
The rain eyes then start to paint the canvas bigger than the pain size to simply pen down the new rhymes as I freestyle
The words I spill in a deep pan to sauté the deep pain when I hammer the membrane to drain out the red diamonds from my dead veins to clot memory in this time frame when I mind game the clueless crossword mindfully that cross ways on my grounding like the crossed waves from different spots of my cloud brain
But then the divine decided to stand in my eyeline when I started to deice the deep voice week wise by this device that divides the deep lines when I recite & resize the precise to free size with the iris of my big eyes that’s lightening my steep choice by lightning from the deep sky to make space for this beautiful U & I of this UnIverse that’s nothing but the pure light

I’m delighted & honoured by reading this wonderful review by Tara from Raw Earth Ink on my debut book – Lightning Rhymes…My gratitude to Tara for reading my book & writing an in depth review on Amazon & goodreads…I don’t think I would ever be able to express how it feels…I’m sharing this review…my joy with you all…
“I read this in paperback. This is an unsolicited review.
I’ve been following poet Navin Manik for some time now on multiple social media platforms and for good reason. I often find myself nodding my head, ‘yeah, this guy is speaking my own heart’. Typically I am not a fan of rhyming or structured poetry, but there are a few writers out there who, I feel, do so without it feeling forced or trite. Navin is one such poet. Often it’s not that he pens this huge and powerful revelation, but instead writes through dark and light inner thoughts that I think a lot of us have. Insecurity. Treachery. Longing. Inner torment. The body’s betrayal. Dusk and dawn. Falling down. Looking to the skies above.
It’s a bit tough to choose a favorite from the stack, so I’ll share from the very first poem, the first one he ever wrote, as I understand it. “Speechless I Became” introduces us to this delightful collection with: ‘Speechless I became When I saw the glimpse of me Felt a sudden shift Paused were the thoughts Everything came to a halt Tears began to fall Soul wanted to scream Inner pain was so real Wounds wanted to heal I began to breathe…’ The introspection and subsequent personal revelation is so heartfelt and soul-rending, one has a growing sense of urgency to continue on, page after page.
The book was a great length at just about 120 pages. I like its simple cover and the description makes it feel approachable. I didn’t care for the formatting, however it may due to the nationality of origin (I am aware that different countries have different formatting and ‘rules’ for publishing). I have never purchased a book from this particular country before, so I have nothing to compare it to. But, to describe, the font was a bit large and margins a bit tight, causing it to feel almost crowded on the page. White space in a book is nearly as important as the printed word. But again, this is merely opinion and I don’t count it against the author personally. I did appreciate that I found no misspellings or odd punctuation issues, so that really helps me love this even more. I give this collection 4.25/5 stars and consider it recommended reading for those who enjoy modern metered/rhyming poetry that speaks straight to your heart.”
My poetry style:
I don’t follow any particular style…In fact, I don’t even know how many different styles exist…it doesn’t matter to me…coz poetry is about expressing in whichever manner one wants to…I simply line my rhyme when I eye the shine…that shine is the raw shine of the very moment…whatever it may offer…I listen to my heart…
I’m truly grateful to each & every one of you…for your wonderful support…for your unconditional love towards my poetry..I would only humbly ask you to buy my book if you connect with my rhymes…Lightning Rhymes…
I’m delighted, honoured & deeply touched by reading this heartfelt review by Sinead McGuigan (Instagram handle: @sineadmcgpoetry) on my debut book – Lightning Rhymes…My gratitude to Sinead for reading my book & writing this amazing review on Amazon…No words can describe this feeling…
I shared last time how & when I started writing poems…before that, I had never written a single line…but I do remember clearly that I would simply “sing” to myself on my way home from the train station…that 10 minutes walk…yeah, I sound best if you put noise cancellation hearing protection on 😉…I was like…”nah, it’s not me”…what I’m actually saying is that I did sense something but that’s about it…but that changed in late 2017…a state of self-realization…I felt this crazy need to write those words down…I’m sharing my very first poem below…I was like “what’s happening to me…in me”…I started writing whenever I would sense words in me…I was admitted to the hospital on 7th Nov 2019…the day I was hit by brain hemorrhage…writing poetry was all I did besides the regular therapies & a bit of chit chatting…poetry helped me…it’s therapeutic in the sense that I could express what I was going through…I even shared my poem with the nurses & therapists 😊😂…I couldn’t have made it this far without them, the municipality, my friends, colleagues, blogger friends & my own will to live…and most importantly, without the beautiful support & love from my family…7th Nov 2021 was my conscious choice to publish my debut book…coz it’s the date of my rebirth…
I’m truly grateful to each & every one of you…for your wonderful support…this book was my dream & it would’ve remained that way if you were not there to show your love…I would only humbly ask you to buy my book if you connect with my lines…if you wish to read my rhymes…Lightning Rhymes…
