First, a word about Kiklos. A variant spelling of Greek word Kyklos meaning cycle or circle, it is, in the present context - to quote Nevil Coghill, President, The Poetry Society, which first published the Gavin Bantock poem in question, namely Ichor - the 'circle-city of person itself.'

This My Body Is Kiklos - a quote from Ichor - retraces Parminder Singh's journey into the dim and distant past, another inwards. In the course of his journey, he encounters the girl he broke faith with; the wife he couldn't quite convince of his love; the aged parents he let down; violent death meted out to his cousins in the aftermath of the assassination of the Prime Minister by two Sikh bodyguards.
