Prose and PoetryScars left by Life and LockdownThis book contains a collection of poems and short stories from a working class Walsall man spanning his incarceration during the Epidemic of Covid 19.It is a small volume containing some self-criticism and soul searching following an extended work career and retirement at the age of 67, into a world where nothing is certain.Like leather there are scars, discolouration, colloquial and political language and references.The work is straight from the writer’s heart and highlights a sense of emotional helplessness. Passion, anger and incredulity permeates the work.It is a 'dip in' collection of self-examination; it looks at the effects of external situations that no matter how we try, we cannot avoid or pacify.Spaces for criticism and readers own notes are included.

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
