Venus' Scar - Gordon Purkis - Bog

Venus' Scar: poems by Gordon Purkis takes a quasi-mystical approach in its attempt to understand the nature of love as it relates to existence in a universe that seems playful and profound yet mocking and cold. With desires aplenty and little chance of fulfillment, Venus' Scar takes an almost surgical approach to the love lyric. Together with its companion piece Seeking Creation, Purkis tries to uncover the source of sincerity without much hope in succeeding - yet the journey and the exploration yields its own rewards.
