Time and Songs of the River Man

In Time and Songs of the River Man, Chinaka philosophizes existence with an almost unflinching enthusiasm that transcends wandering. Although, he describes himself as a "wanderer" it's obvious that the wealth of experiences and philosophical insights engrafted in the poems surpass wandering, especially the metaphysical poems about 'life', 'death', and 'time'-the very essence of being. Chinaka puts the gift of garb of an existentialist here.
