The poems are uniquely imaginative and strikingly orignal, rooting themselves in the landscape - and the forces that shape the landscape - to explore the inherent tensions between spirituality and physicality. The religious and the corporeal merge with and emerge from this vast territory as they seek to discover the extent of their boundaries.

Childbirth

Childbirth

I prowl the hinterlands
for the animal that was you
some unknown species of Yeti
howling in a high-pitched laughter
as you laid down unknown footprints
in the unseeing mist
to be believed in later
like snow after rain.

Digging My Own Grave
