Perception<\/em><\/h1>\n

Christina Pugh<\/h2>\n

Perception<\/em> consists of short poems rooted in observed objects. Using metaphoric description as well as association, the poems inhabit the objects or entities that they contemplate \u2014 ranging from paintings and shop signs to wallpaper and flower species. These poems are seeking to enact a tenor of attention \u2014 the power of singular focus \u2014 that is too easily lost in our multi-tasking age.<\/p>\n

“A Smaller Purple\u201d from Perception<\/em>:<\/p>\n
