'Kevin Densley's Please Feed the Macaws...I'm Feeling Too Indolent is lively as a string of firecrackers. Combining wry observations on the shortcomings of culture and politics with keen historical portraiture and a new kind of dense poetic squib - packed with a whole poem's charge in a few short lines - the collection crackles into life on every page. His vision is both broad and specific. Broad when he focuses on the mythic figures that shape our world - Madonna and Child Kate Kelly in her brothers' shadow even Nosferatu winking from the wings - but specific in the small delightful ways he brings them to life. Solemn-serious building the early bridges graceful as a cow with a cup of tea. Please Feed the Macaws is a collection that sighs and rages at the inanities of the world - then sets out to change them one line and coruscating image at a time.' - James Roderick Burns
