Description

While Michael Meagher’s poems depict the everyday world of the manual labourer–the grunt work of landscaping, roofing and pest control–their true subject is the inner life of the observer. Written in language that’s open and direct, Meagher’s poems connect the disparate people and occurrences of his days into a web of relationships held together by curiosity, persistence and love.
