Description
While Michael Meagher’s poems depict the everyday world of the manual labourerthe grunt work of landscaping, roofing and pest controltheir 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.
