I found this classic Mel & Kim vinyl in a chazza and it’s rather synchrontainious as one of the poems in my new pamphlet BOLD IN THE LIFE is dedicated to Kim, so I thought I’d share it. (And if you like it, you can preorder the book here: www.brokensleepbooks.com/product-page...). Bona walloping!

Feb 2025 marks 6 years since IN RETAIL was published by @arachnepress.bsky.social.

I am so, so grateful to Cherry & to everyone who has bought the book!

In 2006 I attended my 1st course at Ty Newydd tutored by Gillian Clarke & Micheal Longley. He was so gentle & focussed & in a feedback session said, ‘This poem is rather bleak, does it need to be?’. He quietly showed me how you could rewrite, change things & make another poem. Thank you Michael! 🙏❤️

Today’s TOTALLY STRANGE: A Queer Icons Poetry Workshop at Bridge Cottage in Port Sunlight was fabulous! Poems were inspired by photos of Pete Burns in the exhibition Total Stranger & also by our own queer icons. I decorated the space with my 1980s sketch/scrapbooks & we dropped by Pete’s old home.

Happy birthday Dad! Here’s a poem he never got to read although I did show him a proof of A VOICE COMING FROM THEN when he was in hospital. I thought ‘Tobias and the Angel, 1989-90’ was about Richard Davies (which it is), but reading it now I also realise that the towering, smiling angel is dad. ❤️
