The Poetry Review – ‘Ars Poetica with Desire Line’
5 desire line poems in Poetry Review Autumn 2023. A form I invented while poet in residence for the Dartington Trust 2022, thinking about landscape gardening (via Beatrix Farrand). A desire line is the path that’s worn by people taking the most direct route (rather than the official path). In these poems you can either meander through or cut across for the/a direct meaning.
