These intensely private poems come from ordinary life, not big questions: moments that never add up to a span of time, meetings and goodbyes, some for good, and talk among family, friends and colleagues that halts and never quite arrives. Most of all they come from random, useless memories. The speaker distrusts rhetoric; he watches people and chats with them without polishing his words.
