below the following brief Centretruths editorial:-
The sixteen
prose poems in this collection should be ideally suited to those who prefer
their poetry prosy and mainly concerned with philosophical issues or, at any
rate, with a philosophical treatment of issues and subjects that could be
treated more frivolously if one lacked the intellectual machinery and moral
insight with which to tackle them in this way.
I suspect that John O’Loughlin’s first attempt at prose poems, back in Dosshouse
Blues (1973-75), was more poetically frivolous than is to be found here;
though that would be in keeping with his work of the period. Ten years later and the results are far more
interesting, with perhaps a hint of Baudelairian influence here and there,
albeit without conscious intention on his part.
However that may be, these prose poems are not essays, whatever
appearances might suggest to the contrary, but painstakingly contrived pieces
which never part company with the context in which they were conceived. - A
