This is the second volume from Gloucestershire poet Simon Jones, after the publication of "Bright" in 2013. Here is a book of English haiku to enliven the scene of the locally-experienced world. The poems are diverse in subject but meant to respect a single narrative identity as, in three sections, they explore life in different styles of thinking. The goal a common one of poets: to, as Wordsworth said, "see into the life of things".
