Product Details

In his fifth and most organic collection, Brodie Finegan Forbes turns inward and outward at once, dissolving the boundary between life and language. Untitled the V is not about becoming, nor momentum, nor consequence. It is about being, raw, immediate, and unfiltered.

These poems do not chase. They do not plead. They do not perform.

They observe, they confront, they exist.

Moving between stillness and intensity, clarity and contradiction, this collection explores identity, awareness, loneliness, truth, ego, love, and the quiet violence of simply being alive. Each line stands as it is unadorned, undeniable. Each poem a moment captured without distortion.

From the haunting self-recognition of The Man in the Distance and Almost Believing, to the philosophical weight of In the shape of what arrives... and Constancy, to the sharp confrontations of Arseholes and A Waste, every piece reflects a mind no longer searching for answers, but standing within them.

It is poetry that does not ask for understanding.

It is poetry that meets you where you are.

Read it slowly.

Read it when the noise fades.

Read it when you are willing to face what is already there.

Untitled the V

For the Animals

I write a great deal about what it means to be human.

Perhaps part of being human is deciding what we do with what we have.

From every book purchased directly through this website, 50% of the profit is donated to the RSPCA, helping animals who have been abandoned, neglected, mistreated, or simply left without somewhere safe to go.

There is no grand philosophy behind it.

I have spent much of my life writing about suffering, survival, love, fear, cruelty, redemption, and the strange responsibility that comes with being alive. Eventually, words have to become something more than words.

Success has never interested me simply for the sake of having more.

Animals ask very little of us. They do not care who we are, what we have achieved, what we own, or whether anybody knows our name. So this is one small way that I can make the work mean something beyond the page.

You buy a book.
You support an independent writer.
And somewhere beyond the page, something good comes from it.

That is enough philosophy for me.
