’The Momentary Clock’ is Peter Hague’s fifth book of outstanding poetry. Once again, he takes full control of the whole canopy that his work becomes - each book a soul-searching work of art that reveals another side of this talented indie author. His various books could be described popularly as concept albums in poetry, but there is much more to it than that - they are more like a rigorous test of broad faith or an aerial of extended thought, always tuned into the rich plethora of common simplicity that is caught in the eye and the mind of living. They become relentless pictures of experience and inspiration; there is also an occasional sense of good humour at work. As usual, there is no leaning toward any political association or religious following, yet thoughts on all these important human tendencies continue to be observed and flow through his work. Sometimes it is a genuine search for truth and understanding and other times a careful examination of the inherent wrongs that dogmatic or idealistic thinking can lead the human condition to embrace. Many of his important observations are illustrated through personal narratives.

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....
