AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'British P(oe)Ms continues a poetic/political exploration that started with P(oe)Ms (Rabbit Poetry, 2017),  which collected a beau present for each Australian Prime Minister and continued with the United States’ Beaux Pres(id)ents. It employs a non-fictional, onomastic poetics to look in new light and ways at the past and present leaders of the United Kingdom. A beau present (also known as a beautiful inlaw) is a poem composed using only the letters in the name of the addressee. For example, a beau present about Robert Walpole must only use words that can be made from the letters R, O, B, E, T, W, A, L, and P.'
