He then talks with it and listens and obtains something approximating truth, beautifully delivered in an entertaining and accessible way. There is no attempt to define a political stance or viewpoint, though Hague plays along with doctrines and politics, while considering them to be both a decadent betrayal and mostly unworthy of intellectual thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This experimental work of prose poetry has me seeking a new range of poetic expression: one that crosses the familiarity of truncated lines to find a different way of controlling the words, and although it may seem at first that these poems are more verbose than my usual style, this is not actually true; there were many edits of beautiful lines that were disregarded in favour of better flow and concise story telling.
