Publisher Description: Windstorm is a passport to the place where chaos and form meet; Denham's timeless ethereal gaze is rooted in the mastery of poetic forms such as the sonnet and Dante's terza rima. These quiet, forceful poems explore heaven, earth and sea with arresting images, ideas and words. Like the wind, Denham's poetry has the power to move. in the windsong. This is no translation, this long-line tow trawling the abyssal silt, oceanic-soul, in the low opaline light sifting down through fire's alburnum. --excerpt, Windstorm |
