mudtrombones knotted in the spill

Arteidolia Press 2023

Neil Flory writes to put disorder into order, strenuously using language that mirrors the thought processes of the mind: innovative punctuation; non-linear progression of ideas and images; linking and enjambment of words, lines, and immediate syntactical constituents; controlling and mixed metaphors, obliteration of the lines between poetry and prose and music. These are poems about authentic and unvarnished truth. This bizarrely, beautifully conceived and executed work will reward the patient reader with glimpses of otherwise unavailable knowledge and possibly perceptions of silver whisperings in the night.
