Poems Suitable to Current Material Conditions

By Frank Davey

Poems Suitable to Current Material Conditions demonstrates how seductive everyday words those euphemisms and new 'expressions' often mean more than we think they do: how when we speak them we can be tricked into saying more than we've meant to say. In these mischievous poems about mischievously charming language, Davey shows us how words can be more nimble than we are ourselves, how they take us places we may not have wanted to go, and how likely it is that you've already been there.
