About

From the bars and cafes of Granada and Paris, to the gardens of the Alhambra Palace, these poems take the reader on a journey into the vibrant singularity which resides in objects and places, in search of what is universal in the particular.

Reviews

Often surrealist in its approach this poetry puts surrealism to good use - as a vehicle for state of feeling, and as a means of realising the wider perspectives of a world where the particulars of suffering and meditation are part of a living continuum.

Bruce Dawe on Night Breathing

The poems in this collection, especially the longer ones, are impressive in their Lyrical intensity and sophistication.

Winter in New York

September 11

Winter is early this year, the city
covered in white. Snow billows
through the streets. People try to
shelter but too many slip from
view. Snow blindness. Firemen
wash down a fire truck, burnt by
ice. People with photographs
search through drifts. Snow has
made all their faces white. Winter
comes early in too many places.
