Calling this new poetry may seem unusual, given that this self-curated collection spans five decades of writing. Covering a wide range of subjects, from timeless emotions to political and social issues, these poems are presented with a distinctive voice that reflects years of poetic exploration. This marks the poet's first standalone collection, bringing together works that, until now, have only appeared in small selections. Between 2010 and 2012, no more than three of these poems were published in poetry anthologies and on the Poetry Library website. Now, for the first time, these poems are gathered in a single volume, offering readers a journey through a lifetime of verse.
