Yet somewhere that moment exists;
A place where memories collide,
A timeless place of corresponding desire
That lasts beyond a passing thought,
And nestles in a distant heart. 

THROUGH AN OPEN WINDOW DAVID RATCLIFFE

 David writes from a place of truth, that sweet spot so many of us look for in our writing but seldom find. He is a poet who is not afraid to examine and narrate his life from childhood to middle age without obfuscation or deceit and because of this we get writing that is beautiful, searing, funny and, at times, crushingly sad.

Mick Corrigan is the author of “Deep Fried Unicorn” and “The Love Poetry of Judas Iscariot”.
