NEW RELEASE
Arboreal
This set of poems is a record of touch, of union with the age and wisdom of trees. Trees, in this pamphlet, stand as equals to humans and demand, through Board, a strong and wise voice of their own.
In a series of closely controlled, gem-like poems, the pamphlet opens its arms to welcome and include both the nature and personal experiences which exist in and around the forest.
- Jane Burn, author of Be Feared, Nine Arches Press
