The Cleft

The Cleft – Lawrence Reed The Cleft is a selection of poems completed between 2019 and June 2024. Lawrence draws inspiration from nature and the strange thoughts that it inspires. This is shown in works such as Four Seasons and Diversity – Seven Bird Studies . The period of Covid lockdown is also examined from a number of angles. Many of the poems in this collection are also deeply introspective: Ruins, The Selfish Poet’s Dilemma, Why? and the disturbing Gibbous Moon . Virtually all of Lawrence’s poems convey the solipsistic philosophy that knowledge outside of the mind’s perception is unsure. Many have been published in book collections and online magazines. ‘ From his own fruitful imagination Lawrence sets free a quite subliminal collection of selected poetry spanning from 2019 to the present day. Allow yourself to be captivated by his writing prowess, his cadences, and his composed landscapes. Lawrence invites you to enter The Cleft .’ CT Meek, Publisher To sample some poetry and to find out more… www.lawrencereed.com – ASIN: B0D9LKR4TG | ISBN13: 9798333086167 | ISBN-13: 979-8333086167
