Blue

The color blue & its aspects are, to Robert Burton, descriptors of very personal things. Many of those are examined / exposed / explained in the poems in this book called Blue. He has a knowledge of himself, &, importantly, the ability to pass on that knowledge in a well-crafted & insightful way that makes this small collection an excellent & delightful read. - Mark YoungIn Blue we are led through moments and situations that play with our understanding of reality, presence and absence, which slowly draw us in to question the 'exact shape/of an empty space'. He does it well.- Mark CobleyBlue is syntactically surprising: an exciting collection of poetry which, like good jazz, finds rhythm in the notes left unplayed and the words left unsaid. This is a layered work to return to time and again, each visit rewarded with new meaning.- Aaron Kent
