A Specialist at The Recycled Heart is a free verse speculative poetry collection that questions our understandings of the real, the now, or the possible, and asks
- what is the sound of the wind – of a sigh – on Mars:
- what does an abandoned artificial life form contemplate in a lonely existence in far outer space, and why was it made, only to be abandoned;
- is it possible to go fishing to catch a passing thought?
Look Inside
I swim
like the fishes
on mellish street
they roar
and they meander
tangling up
my feet
the water
is as black
as bitumen tar
try pushing through that
you’ll soon know
where you are
What is Speculative Poetry ?
Wikipedia defines Speculative poetry in this way:
Speculative poetry is a genre of poetry that focuses on fantastic, science fictional and mythological themes. It is also known as science fiction poetry or fantastic poetry. It is distinguished from other poetic genres by being categorized by its subject matter, rather than by the poetry’s form.
In the case of A Specialist, Frank Prem wanders freely through the ‘what if’ universe and accomplishes a satisfying poetic exploration.
