Description
Poetry. In WATCHFULNESS, Peter O'Leary delves into arcane, biblical and mystical texts as well as the art of iconic architecture to deliver a new poetry. Here the center is "concealed in concealment" wherewith a new composition can be, in Duncan's powerful phrase, "made loose." Reminiscent of both Robert Duncan's "Passages" and Ronald Johnson's Ark, these verses draw influence from the aether of poesis itself, thus charting a thoroughly contemporary and soulful terrain.
