In this fourth small volume published, like its predecessors, the Red Fox (editor also known for his children's books), Christine Billiards drives his quest for a fair say in the field of indignation. His poetry discreet and sensitive to variations in weather, figures and faces, enlarged and disharmony in the world of men. But never ruled out the bitterness of the poet's task to celebrate (if little else), singing (so low that the fault):
Face pozzolan
modeled in the lava
The earth is a huge crater where
an angry god
spits words of the late
ye of little faith you have to answer
this minefield of
sky forever gray ash
transformed into a battlefield ...
... But climbThese Clematis and these Brambles pain have a lot of charm in their pity for a disenchanted world, where poetry nevertheless retain its own supreme privilege of not giving up say, again and again.
on tiptoe
wider world.
