Beschreibung

Tracks of My Tears is a selection of poems by Paul Hollingworth. Hollingworth utilises varied styles, including the Sestina form, to play with themes which touch our lives in one form or another. He sees every poem as a ghost story and a space to create thought on eternal issues such as loss, love, change, ecology, time, history, markets and identity. He takes us at different moments on a philosophical and poetic journey to the Peruvian and Colombian Andes, to London, to Venice, to Andalucia and to Dorset in order to discover magic, change, and dystopia. He writes about UK riots and Covid-19. There are many ghosts here: teachers, friends, poets and philosophers. People who shaped who we once were and are today. Real, rather than fake, influencers. There are ghostly locations everywhere too. The collection is a pondering for all of us to question what we hear or read and "certain or safe" beliefs about where we belong, to value what is sacred within human life, and to fight for truth and authenticity as well as acceptance of others rather than lose ourselves to unscientific easy opinions and conspiracy theories despite our natural susceptibilities, flaws and failings.
