The Graphology Poems are a ‘life-long’ poetry cycle of semiotics begun over a quarter of a century ago. This multiplicious and diverging cycle and sub-cycles of poems uses handwriting, textuality, orthography, and considerations of prosody, to consider issues of human rights, justice, ethics, politics, environment, animal rights, questions around the purpose of art, music, writing and creativity, forms of activism and the nature of knowledge. This is the second, expanded edition of Graphology Poems 1995-2015, and includes all the poems in the original Five Islands Press three-volume edition, plus some of the uncollected Graphology poems of the same period, a reproduction of the holograph Runes notebook, and a lengthy updated foreword by the author, an introduction by Nicholas Birns and ‘outroduction’ and interview with the author by Jonathan Dunk, edited into a single volume by Gareth Jenkins.
