    About this ebook

    If you like this ebook, then please share it! "Les Études - Mindscapes: Solitude" is a collection of short, contemplative "Poem-Stories" examining the themes of being alone,and reasons why people might choose to be alone, or feel as if they are alone, even when apparently surrounded by other people and the buzz of constant activity. In Prisons of Light, it also seeks to examine the theme of loneliness caused by our own desperate yearnings and ambitions.

    Oluwatosin Ojumu

    I am a born again Christian writer, blogger and webdesigner. I write under a few different pen names, some of which are variations of my own name.Under this name "Oluwatosin Ojumu", I write mainstream (non faith-based) contemplative poetry and literary fiction. My poetry is mostly inspired by nature, and art, and beauty, and themes of memory, imagination, time, consciousness and explorations of other abstract concepts. I am currently writing a range of "Études" or "Studies" based on some of these concepts.My fiction is largely based on and inspired by existing classic works from great authors like George Eliot, Charles Dickens, Jane Eyre.Under "Tosin Ojumu", (the shortened version of my first name) I write mostly Christian material. I am producing an open translation of the Bible (New Testament) called "The Open Bible". I also write articles about my opinions on various Church and Christian matters, and I maintain a blog about my expectations and hopes for Christian marriage called "Finding Mr Huggie-Wuggie". This is also the pen-name I use for other non-fiction, including opinion articles about issues unrelated to my faith.I also plan to publish a few works under completely anonymous pen-names....! ;)

      It is August of the year 2000, and I am cold. I know the sun is shining outside, but there are no windows in the courtroom. The lighting is subdued, darker in the back where spectators sit and lighter in the front where tragedies play out—like a the

      Two Poems

      It’s soothing when the newly dead are way older than I am. This guy was 95. His picture—middle-aged, archaic glasses—freezes him somewhere around 1970. But even when they are my age and live in my town and share so many of my habits and interests tha
