Publisher's Synopsis
Deeply perceptive, always dipping below the surface of things, Wind Playing with a Man's Hat combines a plaintive honesty about change, mortality and darkness with a precise and lyrical vision that also sees the light. Never sentimental, there is a keenness of wit that penetrates to the heart of things, the poems uncurling in single sentences that reverberate with gentle, but profound moments of epiphany:
as if grain should cascade
forever in a golden trail
and all they had to do was
follow to the rainbow's end.
('Point of View')
