Hello.

Here are the words, thoughts and pictures that
fall out of my head.

Honourable Mention

So one of my poems got published in a university magazine, so I thought I'd post it up here. I wrote it back in April, in case you're interested:

Whilst paying attention to T.S. Eliot

I should not be here
Rather, amongst the Tubes
And churches of the
Beleaguered ancient city

Let us go then, you and I…

I cannot think in paragraphs
Only in phrases, complete enough
My grammar is that of no man’s –
Adjusted as the sentence sees fit,
To keep you aroused at least til
Its cadence.

We are no prophets, but flapping
Gull wings – my sentences show this –
Without fear, or direction.
