A Choir of Whispers - Frank Prem

there is a me shaped space

right here where I stand

there was nothing before

there will be nothing when I leave

French philosopher Gaston Bachelard explored the philosophic and poetic values of space in his masterwork, The Poetics of Space.

In A Choir of Whispers Frank Prem interprets Bachelard's explorations of the poetic quasi-element space, decanting the vivid imagery contained in the philosopher's work into new and accessible free verse poetic storytelling forms, bringing each story to life.
