Rogue Equations

About the Book

What I want
is a landscape
of such keen weather such clean lines;
the action
is sub-atomic;

negative/positive

language as biochemistry (speak to me)
– charged particles meet and fall in love it was ever thus –
metaphor as rogue equation of desire.

The poems in Rogue Equations, Wendy Jenkins’ second collection of poetry, are active in the tension between energy and restraint. Water, weather, desert, desire, design … disruption. And most of all image. A rogue equation is a metaphor of a metaphor.
