Sobre IBD

HERE (AND NOW) Clusters of English “unofficial” roses have climbed the fence to face the sun. Each in its crimson finery supposes that it, alone, is the only one. Honeysuckle tangles with its vagrance bramble and lavender, rose and gorse, fills the still air with its golden fragrance there where the steps run a wayward course. Shamrock has camped with a fragile neatness just where the foxgloves have unfurled; the privet has flowered and its lemon sweetness hedges the edges of this living world.  RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW Imagine you have an audience. (Which you have). And people are listening to everything you say. (Which they are). And everything you say is being written down. (Which it is). And may be used in evidence against you. (Which it will be). Don’t you wish you could be alone?

Original and with a format that stands out from the ordinary, it is proving particularly well-received by those who “don’t normally like poetry”. Originally written by hand, the author has traversed a fine line betw...

  • Polishing the Silver
    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

  • THE CREATION AND COLONISATION OF MATTER
    Brian F Taylor
    This is a historical description. Why is it not in the past tense? Because it is also happening in the Present. It is a description of how we have come to be what we are, here and now. It also shows the overall route which we have taken from our point of origin. It is the opposite of modern views which trace the origin of life to an accidental occurrence in matter in the distan...
