Poet , law graduate, ex civil servant. Member of The Poetry Society. My poetry is modern, traditional, mythical, sometimes erotic. I experiment with language and form to convey atmosphere, imagery, rhythm and themes. I see the world as metaphysical, mythical and surreal. My poetry portrays the relationships between people interacting in our natural and industrial landscape, alienated by technology and individual greed. Love, romance, environment, nostalgia, history and politics merge into this reality and fantasy of modern times. For my published poetry books: Aspects Of Love; Inside Out, Mavericks, Wooded Windows and Pomegranate Flesh see
