The Tyranny of Love
Author: Nik Beat
"Nik Beat is an artist. His
poetry is blood, sinew, muscle and nerve, extracted from his inner
being with the deft craft of a surgeon’s blade."
~ Norman Cristofoli
"Nik Beat writes out of the
pop world of today, translating icons, images and ideas into a
poetry of clever wit and unpretentious wisdom. But it is the modern-day
romantic in his writing - an ability to capture both the tenderness
and brutality of his life which creates the arresting tension
in his work. It is this conflict which marks him as an original.
He captivates us with his vulnerability, watching him walk the
tightrope between head and heart in all of its comedy and tragedy."
~ Mary Elizabeth Grace
