subtly crafted poetry

and the uneasy ethics of belonging

in opposition to the reductive logic of Western capitalism which views other-than-humans as only resources for extraction

offering a dissection of the self that is by turns playful and sharply ironic

Ordinary Morning Sunlight by Christopher Reid Damian Walford Davies subtly crafted poetryChristopher Reid's poetry is shaped by incisive intent disguised as playfulness, and a powerful resistance to decorum and convention. He draws us into the dark with such an offhand manner that we don't know it's happening. Here, he subverts traditional forms such as the ballade, to let his mischievous, almost incidental but deeply moving observations and encounters resound.
