The Fool's Progress: Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781461096504)

These poems span a number of years and form a collection of work so far. Here are the voices of Icarus, Orpheus and Tristan, encounters with Medusa and Circe. In the sequence The Fool's Progress a court jester muses on a relationship with the king's daughter. Baudelaire contemplates the lascivious distractions of the world and the exigencies of mortality. Captain Ahab is snagged in a trawl net. There are lyrical evocations of the Yorkshire landscape and the Scottish Highlands.
