The Tuesday Poem


Thoughts of the Father by Philip Salom is the Tuesday Poem this week - a poem about fatherhood and guilt and love. Salom is an Australian poet who has published since 1980 and has many prizes under his belt. 

There are notes attached to the work - translation notes and other useful things to help get inside the poet's head. It is posted at the TB hub by ex-pat kiwi poet Jennifer Compton who has just won the distinguished Newcastle Poetry Prize.
