Inhaltsangabe

Duncan Rouch here presents poems that honour people about their positive nature and reflect on challenges that people face in life.

Duncan began writing poems as portraits of people who he met overseas, to remember and honour them. Here in this book are new poems of that portrait type. These poems also connect to the idea that it would useful to acknowledge the positive characteristics of people. This concept is also response to people in the public eye being generally criticised on and on and on, by the media.

Also, here are poems to reflect on key challenges that people face in life, from both internal and external issues, including murder and terrorism. These poems, then, often have an emotionally darker feel, though often with at least a little light open for hope.

People portrayed here include Lady Dianna Spencer (I Am the Sky), folk singer Joan Baez (In The Car With Joan Baez), poet Sylvia Plath (Present Imperfect, and Hubcap), and those in tragic terrorist events, including 11th September 2001 attacks, USA (Passion, Flight 93, and Empty Man).
