    This month we are reading the long form poem Essex Clay by Andrew Motion. It is personal account about loss, memory, and retrieval: a verse memoir of the former Poet Laureate, revisiting the subjects that have defined his writing life. Through his careful reflections, the poet has been conscious of the flinty Essex clay as a primeval force lurking below the mechanical world of the buses and cars which transport him as a young 17-year old boy during the days after this mothers riding accident.
