For Rod Mengham sculpture and painting exist in the world the way
poems do. He invokes the Polish sculptor Katarzyna Kobro, who
believes that sculpture must be understood as part of the world
around it. In Chance of a Storm, poetry is language that comes
trailing bits of other forms of speech and writing. 'Poems should
be finished, but be still hot to the touch, giving a vivid sense of
the thinking and feeling that went into their creation,' he says.
Drew Milne speaks of the poems' 'beautiful, belligerent
laconicism'. While the lyric is central to his work, it cannot
shrug off the ambition of epic, scaled down but still latent. This
telescoping informs the structure of these prose poems, a species
of modernist fable.
