About The Book
Description
Author
We all rock overtly or otherwise. This poetry celebrates diverse aspects of our lives from disconcerting angles: noisy neighbours awakeness weird fauna cycling thighs travel throat-singing 70s TV and of course rock music. Life's transience provides a laugh-out-loud and mischievous springboard for Pettener's eccentric observations: Winds howl life's intense; gaps between the gusts / support the thin fact of existence. Using everyday language this poetry is profoundly accessible. Pettener's deceptively simple soundtrack to life's ups and downs while clearly meditative may just provide a key to a world that lives to work instead of vice-versa: May all beings rock may all beings roll; / may all beings bop till they drop the goal. Rolling through the huge space between the established performance scene and traditional UK poetry publishing this collection rocks!
