Overview

Written between 2018 and 2025, these poems are snapshots of the 21st century British justice system in action. The title Panopticon refers to architect and prison reformer Sir Jeremy Bentham's triangular 'see-all' design, many of which are still in use today, and French philosopher Michel Foucault's writings on power dynamics within justice systems. Sometimes surreal, sometimes visionary, sometimes impressionistic; and sometimes the meaning might be very clear. The relationship between poem and reader is unique - an ongoing dance between the written word, the page, the eye and the mind - and exists in its own right. ""There is language, only language."" - Richard Burton
