A fragmented portrait of Swansea in 2025, *Glimpses* weaves absurdist vignettes, lyrical poetry, and stark observations into a tapestry of a town both haunted and animated by its past. Through crumbling marinas, chattering seagulls, and cardboard birds clutching yin-yang discs, the collection channels the spirit of Dylan Thomas—not in elegy, but in crooked, living detail.
From a charcoal-toothed narrator spitting questions at God to a clockwork town of sweeping rituals and mad prophets on grassy knolls, these pieces oscillate between tenderness and grotesquery. A drone buzzes like a doodlebug; a carnival's false apocalypse drums on; an old woman mutters for coins, then vanishes, washed clean. Here, redemption is a biscuit tossed to a bird, and meaning flickers in pavement cracks, rusted cans, and the silence of a sundial that forgot its purpose.
Blending the mundane and the mythic, *Glimpses* is a fractured love letter to a place where beauty and decay share the same bench—and the back broken by winter might yet cradle a crooked flower.
