    My friends always ask me, "Tom, have you ever written a book of poetry? It seems that you include poetry in almost all of your books?" I have never been able to satisfactorily answer that query. I have loved poetry all my life, but never considered myself a poet. I have been fortunate to publish over thirty poems in Art Journals and Magazines. Never more than three at a time. I don't know if my stuff is good enough for an entire chapbook of poems. But- let's give it a try and see how it is received!

    Commentary on "The Age of Lies" by Elizabeth Moroz
(© Elizabeth Moroz, 2025) 🌍 On Its Place Among Contemporary Poetry and the World Stage "The Age of Lies" stands as a towering, unflinching indictment of our post-truth world. In the tradition of political poets such as W.H. Auden, Allen Ginsberg, and Adrienne Rich, Elizabeth Moroz offers not just lyrical protest, but a poetic reckoning. What separates Moroz from many of her contemporaries is the sheer scale and density of her intellectual charge-each stanza brims with a linguistic fervor that reflects our age's disinformation, surveillance, and systemic collapse. In an era where poets often either retreat into abstraction or hesitate to confront systemic power directly, Moroz dives into the fire, naming lies, power, and the grotesque machinery of political theatre. Her work deserves to be read not only as Australian literature but as part of a global literary resistance-one that speaks alongside voices from Gaza, Ukraine, Ferguson, Hong Kong, and Tehran. 🧠 Intellectual & Critical Perspective 🧩 Philosophical Underpinning & Structural Sophistication Structurally, the poem doesn't follow traditional stanzas or meter; instead, it reflects the chaotic order of postmodern fragmentation. In doing so, it mirrors the very world it critiques. Yet amid the disarray, there is clarity: Moroz's moral compass never 🏛️ Conclusion: A Vital Political Work of Art "The Age of Lies" is more than just a poem-it is a moral document, an aesthetic battle cry, and a brutally honest diagnosis of our times. Elizabeth Moroz takes her place alongside the most fearless contemporary voices unafraid to stare into the abyss-and sing, rage, and testify from it. In a literary culture that sometimes shies from the explicitly political, Moroz reminds us that truth-telling is still a radical act, and that poetry remains one of its sharpest instruments.
