“she will defy me; time after time”
Paper Doll
Katherine Lockton’s debut pamphlet, Paper Doll, strikes the poetry landscape as disruptively as a meteor scars earth with its impact.
“Behind every firewall is a heart, and in that heart sits the seed of something that needs nurturing”
Terminal Romance
Terminal Romance introduces incorrigible romantics, cyber stalkers, foot fetishists, love-struck professors and reality-impaired pessimists. Niki Aguirre’s remarkable eye and unwavering prose imbue each character in this collection with compelling humanity, illustrating with poetic subtlety our innate need to reach out and connect at all costs.
“poetry with punch”
A Class Act
A Class Act is characterised by an attitude of stern determination and a tender, underlying empathy that never forgets the human story behind each headline and statistic. Chip Hamer’s poems jab, feint and move before catching you with a hard left hook.

The Waiting
Martin Egblewogbe’s The Waiting is a collection rooted in metropolitan Ghana, but its primary territory is the human mind.
…having discovered a poet’s work we are always delighted to find that they have been published by flipped eye… It means we can be confident that the poet has been rigorously edited and will have a book that’s beautifully designed and produced with care and attention.
