An Explanation of Poetry to my Father

Colquhoun, Glenn

"Verbs are Estwing hammers ... Ideal for putting some/whack into a sentence. They come in black and blue and /have a good feel hung from a leather pouch firm against/your thigh." Glenn Colquhoun's new collection of poetry uses hands-on language and humour to explain poetry to his builder father ("a man of few words") - and to anyone else not yet captivated by the magic of words.
