The Rubicon
Glen Oglaza
The Rubicon is a wide-ranging and unapologetically contemporary poetry collection exploring love, loss, ageing, politics, faith, mortality, nature, and the fragile state of modern democracy. Moving effortlessly between intimate reflections and sharp political commentary, Glen Oglaza examines the personal and the global with equal intensity.
From tender elegies and romantic longing to fierce critiques of authoritarianism and cultural decline, these poems refuse neutrality. They question God, confront power, mourn the dead, celebrate resilience, and honour the quiet beauty of everyday life.
Philosophical yet accessible, lyrical yet direct, The Rubicon captures the restless voice of a poet unafraid to cross emotional and ideological boundaries. This is poetry that challenges, comforts, provokes, and ultimately affirms the enduring power of conscience, memory, and love.
