“[Dawe] has been quoted as comparing his craft to that of a labourer, for example, constructing a wall. The bricklayer uses bricks. Dawe builds his poems with words. The metaphor in many ways goes to the heart of Dawe’s work. His art is of the people... Gaze about your own home. Or glance out the window. You will find something Dawe has crafted a poem about.”
