Tilting Square
Published by Binnacle 1992
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
’Articulated within fourteen-line structures that formally engage ideas of order and release from order, these poems investigate our essential human needs for framework and creative invention, for support and balance as well as freedom to withstand, grow and survive restriction. These are life-forms in a true metaphysical style.’ Eric Mottram

Azimuth
Published by Binnacle 1984
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
Serial poem. Through a juxtaposition of voices Selerie creates a dynamic interplay between the public and the personal, and focuses on such important areas as domestic relations and the use of natural resources. Moving from serpent myth and riddles to encompass technological data the work retains lyrical wholeness and clarity. Artwork by Alan Halsey.

Roxy
Published by West House Books 1996
Edition 1st
Condition Mint
Long poem. ‘Roxy is a commentary upon the postmodern condition. Its concern is with image, in particular the dialectic of image as mediated by fashion, and in particular again, fashion as what I think D.H.Lawrence called ‘sex in the head’. Roxy ‘herself’ is ‘a kaleidoscope of female presences filtered through a male consciousness’. I believe this is a major work which is going to do more than survive the flak thrown at it, it’s going to gain in significance over the next few years.’ (Tim Allen, Terrible Work)
