From Dipstick Apocalypse by Rupert M. Loydell

Tomas Tranströmer notes that 'sometimes an abyss opens between Tuesday and Wednesday but twenty-six years could pass in a moment. Time is not a straight line, it’s more of a labyrinth', an idea which underpins Rupert Loydell's poems From Dipstick Apocalypse. Here are doppelgängers, doubles, mimics, impersonators and decaying ghosts lost in a maze of poetry, allusion, puns and forgotten memories. Here is a world between others, out of sync with itself, its inhabitants desperate for oblivion and a way to escape the whirlpool of time, echoes of tomorrow, and the 'smell of sulphur and soot'.
