Description
Here, in a Confessional vein reminiscent of Robert Lowell, Peters resolves the pain of a difficult divorce by the creation of original, surreal imagery which seems to distance his pain. In the poem a drowned man, armless, drifts in a semi-tropical sea, accompanied by a strange bleeding fish. Through his powerful verse, Peters triumphs over Existential **angst**.
