Description

Presenting revolving perspectives, with wheels and circles everywhere - a tramp muses on the wheel of fortune, a boy's arm brushes his ear as he bowls, a merry-go-round melts into a hoop of light, the rings of a tree reveal its age, this collection of poems turn on an axis of opposites: self and others, here and there, present and past.
