    • 'Don't let papers, books and people be stacked, Untidily, And don't let them fall over.' The strange, fragile and beautiful link between people, their surroundings and inanimate objects speaks for itself in Terry Wilson's first poetry publication, Fifty. A compilation of fifty poems, Fifty hints at the keen sense of observation the poet holds. In his poems, regular day-to-day on-goings become important acts to derive lessons from, and he uses things of daily use to express his point. In Wilson's world, the plants look up to him, dogs go about their business, lungs hang like suicide and the trees are made of salt and the ground of water. Beautifully written, Wilson's Fifty urges the reader to look around and see the extraordinary in the ordinary.

    • In The Lane and Other Poems, readers are transported to a unique setting: opposite a sobering-up unit in the heart of Adelaide's CBD. Amidst the nightly commotion and close encounters with the rawness of humanity, one might expect tales of chaos. Yet, these poems are imbued with the serenity of nature, the whisper of trees, and the vast expanse of the sky. The moon, a recurring muse, casts its gaze upon the world below, often reflecting on the crowns of human heads. While the collection does not shy away from the grittier aspects of life, presenting poignant portraits of individuals in turmoil, it also captures moments of genuine connection. The author's interactions with many of these souls, from casual conversations to a memorable embrace and blessing from an African spiritualist, add depth and humanity to the narrative. This anthology is a testament to finding beauty and connection in unexpected places, and the resilience of the human spirit amidst adversity.

    • In his third book of poetry, Wilson relates stories and dilemmas that grow out of the hidden tracks of everyday life, as they take us in time and outside of time. In Fox Spirit, words are at play and hopefully even in the hardest poems we will still find happiness. From darkness they follow a light towards new understandings and discoveries.

    • After penning his previous collection The Lane and Other Poems, Wilson remains ensconced in his Hocking Place residence - known locally as 'the Lane' - while compiling this new selection. Though soon he will graduate from this phase of life, the Lane has proven a fecund wellspring of experiences and inspiration. Wilson is not yet ready to depart from this creative oasis. As he explains: 'One guy we knew well once told me, 'I do like to drink at the Blue Doors, ' as if our very doorstep was his favourite pub. The name stuck, and now it graces this book's cover as well.
