The title poem A Way With Words is a lament from a writer who lacks confidence in his ability.
In Sibling Rivalry a brother discovers the source of his sister’s suddenly acquired wealth.
In Moonlight Revelation a couple find forgiveness when one becomes the victim of a crime.
Keep the Giraffe Burning is a poem in which a man recalls his first encounter with surrealist art.
The Wall, another tale involving sibling rivalry sees a man constructing a barrier between himself and his sister. We do not discover the real reason until the last line.
In The Box a widow speculates about the contents of a parcel.
The Bubble Burst contains some racy humour as it describes an old man’s foray in to the past.
Poems about a 1940’s Christmas and a man rescued from alcoholism by friends who bend the rules to help him secure a job are followed by To a Dark Place Slowly Falling, a story which occupies the latter half of the book and explores the effect of having witnessed a workplace fatality on a man’s subsequent life.
