Publisher's Description

The Dream We Call Reality is a mix of forty sacred poems plus five of God's favor--a sum of forty-five mystical, existential, and divinely inspired poems. In this debut collection, Lufuno Romeo Manwadu speaks directly to the inner self, shifting the focus from fleeting material illusions to the stillness of the inner voice. These are not poems for mere entertainment, but verses woven with insight, warning, and revelation. Manwadu's work pulses with divine urgency and poetic fire--addressing themes of spiritual awakening, human worth, blessings and curses, divine rights, and the subtle laws that govern the soul's ascent. Each piece is a mirror, calling the reader to wake up from the slumber of confusion and remember who they are in God's eyes. Filled with rhythm, rhyme, and holy flame, it is both initiation and invitation--a journey toward enlightenment, alignment with nature, and reconnection with purpose. It is a poetic threshold. This book is a cry from the deep, a spark of curiosity, a trigger of hope, and a call to higher love. It reminds us that until we awaken to the truth of our divine identity, we remain asleep--living in the dream we call reality.

“The Dream We Call Reality is a soul-stirring journey through faith, fire, and awakening. Lufuno Manwadu writes with the depth of a mystic and the honesty of one who has walked through wilderness and come out transformed. His verses ignite reflection, conviction, and reverence, reminding us that poetry can still be prophecy. This collection doesn’t just speak to the mind; it calls the spirit to rise.”

Stanley Beckett

“Reading The Dream We Call Reality felt like sitting down with a friend who’s been through the fire and came back wiser. Lufuno Manwadu’s words are honest, raw, and full of spirit. These poems remind you of what really matters: faith, truth, and finding peace in the middle of chaos. It’s not just poetry; it’s healing on paper. I finished it feeling lighter, clearer, and closer to God.”
