'Houédard wrote that “concrete fractures linguistics, atomises words into incoherence, constricting language to jewel-like semantic areas where poet & reader meet in maximum communication with minimum words”. This aim of his work was synonymous with his theological emphasis on becoming. In a sermon, he taught that “all we who live & grow & are conscious can say is ‘I become, I change, I grow.’”'
