      I don't read much poetry so I have very little to compare Indenture to. I do want poetry to be accessible though and by and large the poems in this short collection are.There are just nine poems to choose from. I rather liked the first one about a green leaf. The theme of the poems is one of modern day enslavement. I can see in the green leaf poem that the enslavement might be one of looking at your peers and wondering why you're not the same but that's just my interpretation.In other poems I think I recognise feeling enslaved by your feelings for somebody, enslaved by food, forbidden liaisons and fear, amongst others.I'm sure somebody cleverer and deeper than me could find hidden meanings and metaphors in the poems. I simply took them at face value, reading the words and taking what I could from them.Indenture is an interesting collection. If you enjoy poetry and you like to investigate the meaning of the words rather than it simply being spelled out for you then this could be a collection for you.
