Vihang A. Naik throws light on the life of a city in all its shades, glory and misery in his City Times and Other Poems. It is an anthology of his intuitive and philosophical poems. The Poems are divided in 6 segmentsi.e. 'Love Song of a Journey Man' is more or less an inner travelogue, The segments, for instance, 'Mirrored Man' is about the other chimeras in the city .The people in the city are capricious like the walk of a crab or the colours of a chameleon. While, ?The Path of Wisdom' is about the beginning of meditation and knowledge. 'At the Shore' records the poet's sense of futility, memory, pain, exile and alienation at the shore of life. The title of this collection is also the heading for the last of its six sections, in which the city is unfolded as a market place, as a heaven for underdogs, and as a seed bed of change and is observed at evening, at mid-night, by moon light and through fog and haze.

Many small poetry collections and new or foreign poets have slipped by me in the past. Last night I was writing back a forth to a friend discussing authors and why people need to center around the same old writers. Why not something new and different? Here is something different and something that stands on its own against the best of the establish poets.
City Times and Other Poems is an unintimidating slim volume. The poet is from India, but there is no hint of this in the writing. Instead, the sparse words move off the page like electrons creating great images in the TV screen of our brains. To be honest, it is an incredible transformation of words to imagery and feeling. I am at a delightful loss of words to explain it or say more. It needs to be experienced. Simply said, “Read it. It’s like magic.” ( )
