Reviews of What the Ant Saw
What the Ant Saw was delightful. Every word of it made the heart leap with songs of love, joy, and hope. It was as if each stroke of your pen leaped right into the center of the reader's soul and walked with them hand in hand to the landscapes, sunrises, and linguistics of Nigeria. Voice of my Ancestors, stay with Me, September 23, and Epigram of Appreciation were my personal favorites. There are others but to list them all is like giving away the entire ending of one's current mystery novel. You have to read the words and reread them to fully grasp the brilliance of their subtleties. A warm beverage and blanket are also required to adequately appreciate the journey the poems take the reader on. The wisdom and warmth of the parents were lovingly tender. The notes throughout spoken in bold Nigerian flare were enjoyable. What the ant Saw hit all of the high notes of the human experience. It is my belief that is what poetry is supposed to do. I was transformed into another country, time, and space. I was lifted out of the present distractions and struggles of living. I highly recommend Steve Anc's latest work. If you are looking for something to escape to this book of poems is the perfect mental vacation. We are transported to another plain from the vantage point of the ant. What we end up seeing and experiencing during our excursion are life lessons we were never expecting to fill a famished and dehydrated soul. 5-Star Rating!!!! Chyrel J. Jackson Author, Writer, Poet, United States of AmericaAuthor of two sides of different coin
The poetry that seems to flow so easily from the depths of Steve Anc's soulful memories is truly a gift of pure pleasure to its reader. Steve's love for his natural surroundings and his talent for bringing it to life in his prose takes one down a path of equal parts mournful sorrow and childlike glee. The world of literature holds a bright spot and a space that only Steve Anc's poetry can fill. Gigi Brown, Poet, Essayist, United States of America.
I have known Steve for a while now. I have read his poems. His poems have profound truth and you can read between the lines. We became friends because we both love to inspire others through beautiful words with poetic expression. His words capture the moment in a way that is seen and will be shown when you read. I highly recommend you purchasing his book to see a different perspective. When you read, visualize and let your mind be free so that you can take all the words in.

This collection is marvelous. There is a rhythm and beat throughout that requires multiple reads of each poem. You dive deep into the mind and heart of Steve Anc as he shares himself with each reader through his words. There is a journey from origin to deathbed as the reader is allowed to follow all paths and end with a final and profound repeat of I am not alone!Kassie J Runyan, United States of America.
