Wonderful intro by Karen Jones.
I didn't know what to expect as I havent read poems from P J Reed before. I was interested to see that some of the poems in Flicker are on the topic of COVID19. A subject which I have also written about too.
There are observations of a child standing apart from a long lost friend. The impact of closure of public toilets. Overheard conversations from disbelieving binmen. The UK governments Eat out to help out scheme. Nature's revival in roaming wildlife seen in our streets during the first Lockdown in March. Hoarding of toilet rolls and the impact of selfishness on the vulnerable. As well as, poetic commentary about the public's inability to wear face masks properly, and amusing face mask faux pas!
There are so many wonderful and powerful observations expressed in so few words. The power of poetry at it's best!
Such a great variety of poems - poetic observations about plastic surgery, homeless men, the blessing and curse of social media, modern war, the authors rescue dogs, tourist watching abroad, magical observations of the moon, sea and nature, to light-hearted and amusing coffee shop anecdotes.
My recommendation: a fantastic collection of poetry. I loved it.
