"LISTEN WITH YOUR EYES" is the most conscientious yet simplistic reflection of society's cascade written in poetic rhyme that an author can ever give a reader. The script in this book is written with bold honestly often in contemporary street lingo relevant to the writer's environmental influences that help seed these pieces. With subject matter ranging from substance abuse, child abandonment and rape to self esteem, materialism and racism, this book is a refreshing and much needed read in these dismal times of witch we live in. Strainj is constantly told by admirers that he "writes poetry for people that don't even like poetry"witch is probably why the common unartsy are attracted to Strainj's poetry so much. There is a very strong inspirational feel about these poems, relating to many walks of life, they're street corner at the same time office building, church pew at the same time park bench, tears at the same time smiles... all in harmony and promoting mental and spiritual ascension. All strainj asks is that you read this book with an open heart and mind, in other words... LISTEN WITH YOUR EYES.

Mary’s life was all mapped out; she knew where she was going and what she was going to do. But all that has changed now—her aunt who had raised her since she was orphaned as a baby had died suddenly of cancer. But Mary hadn’t been born in Australia, and everything she thought she knew about herself was wrong. She was born in Ireland and was now the lady of a grand manor house on a large Irish estate. However, everyone in Ireland believed she had died as a baby and was buried beside her parents in the village cemetery. Something was terribly wrong. Is she the person she has believes she is? Who is the baby buried beside her parents and who is stalking her, watching her every move from the cover of the shrubs and trees, and what is his intent? Mark has also arrived from Australia; he’s tall, dark, and very handsome, and she’s not the only person to fall under his spell. She has a rival for his heart and the perfect body who fits so well into his riding britches. How the girls wish they could ride him as easily as they could ride their own horses. The manor house is now an international five-star motel and function center, and working conditions are better than most places in Ireland, but few, if any, of the locals will work there. Something bad had happened there on the hill the manor had been built on, so few dared enter.
