Abstract | Foreword: I first published Trevor Paviour’s work in my edited anthology of poetry Factories Run By Robots in 2018. Trev’s poetry is often raw and, at times, shocking. His talk of sexual abuse in ‘Religion’ and ‘The Born Again Christian’ (especially in the latter when he writes, ‘The vicar parts with a sinister grin/Off to break new choirboys in’) is both graphic and sordid. While at the same time, his hints at high-profile paedophiles in the British government in the 1970s (‘Remember the Seventies’) and his portrayal of the corrupt ruling classes in ‘Sebastian Theodore Cornwallis’ cut an anti-authoritarian zeal throughout his work. |
