The poems in The Opposite of People examine the place of television and cinema in our lives, while the poet questions how the imagination can be given shape in films and songs, and how those in turn shape our imaginations. How much of ourselves have we taken from the movies? Within this collection, we see our lives reflected in artistry and artifice: contrived but desperately earnest.
