Description
The making of meaning from ephemera is a profoundly human activity-the poems in this collection spring from this urge. The title / klaʊdz / is the phonetic transcription of 'clouds'- the symbols indicate how to pronounce the word. Like clouds, sounds are re-combinable elements with shifting meanings and outcomes, both consequential and transient and subject to randomness and governed by physics. Each poem plays with its subject- roams within its confines and pushes against (sometimes through) the walls of its meanings. The topics range from the concrete- "hive," "camisole," "lantern" - to the abstract- "resurrection," "absence," "derivation."
