There was only a few poems in here I enjoyed. My favourite was the salmon Fisher to the salmon. Solid 2.5 stars.

I like poetry, I subscribe to a monthly poetry magazine - predictably called Poetry - but I'm the first to admit I don't always get poetry and several of these did not either grab me or I did not understand them.
There were some lines I liked but nothing that I could quote and there was no stand out poem that I can say that one is just great.
An average volume of poetry is how I would describe it.

 "For six months you stayed cartographer.
Charting my friend from husband towards father."

The highlight was definitely Elegy for a Still-Born Child:

"For six months you stayed cartographer.
Charting my friend from husband towards father."
