The poems are political and personal (and an examination of where those territories meet), observational and contemplative, and travel through explorations of social inequality, police violations, street homelessness in the US, environmental disaster, intimate experiences of queer sexuality, rites of passage and bereavement, also the power of guidance and renewal.

lyrics
Immigration enforcement
may you no no
crawl the darkness
crawl the corner, park up
may you no no
under this coral sky
then the light falling
turn the corner stop
the van pulling in slow
under this dark sky
us building resistance
(know that)
gathering forces
all of our
intelligence
may you no no
fat officer armoured, power-coward
crawl the dark streets van
crawl the corner park up
and up to the door
a black feather
a black beak
a claw
disorientate
collapse
forget what you came for

It gets under your skin. Clever lyrics, beautifully minimalist music, tunes implanted into your brain pretty quickly and in there for the long haul. French female vocalist, Scottish drummer, and maybe one of my favourite Zaph Mann suggestions. Gavin Hellyer
