New (or newish) News. 30/6/14: A long time since I put anything up here. No news to speak of. I remember that the Norwich reading went well. Then nothing. But I've agreed to read for something called Peter Barlow's Cigarette, at Waterstones, on Deansgate, Manchester, in September. I'm trying to write about twenty-odd pages of something I call Wadsworth Township Oracles. But it's slow going. I've replaced some incoherent " Current Scribble. With an older, rather homeless piece: 16/2/47. The flow is the tu...

Sparks From Stones: April 2015
http://sparksfromstones.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
From cold stones sparks of fire do fly. Friday, April 10, 2015. There is a memorable poem by Martin Kratz in most recent but one issue of The Rialto. Called 'Curriculum'. I say it is memorable because I remembered it, after skimming through the issue when it arrived, before mislaying it. Interestingly I had misremembered the title as being 'Testudo' which is a key word in the culminating final stanza of the poem. We go to fetch them in, someone shouts: Testudo! In silence, they wait for instruction.

From cold stones sparks of fire do fly. Saturday, April 5, 2014. Never trust a poet who can drive. Nothing ever happens to novelists. Except - this. They are born. They get sick, they get well, they hang around the inkwell. They leave home, with their stuff in a hired van. They learn to drive, unlike poets (poets don't drive. Never trust a poet who can drive. Never trust a poet at the wheel. If he can. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Software designer and Infrequent poet.

Sparks From Stones: Kilter
http://sparksfromstones.blogspot.com/2014/06/kilter.html
From cold stones sparks of fire do fly. Monday, June 2, 2014. Catching up on Anthony Lawrence's Signal Flare. 8230; the long opening poem, an elegy so clearly reminiscent of Slessor's Five Bells. Has these lines which nicely draw out the word 'kilter' from it usual environment, highlighting its strangeness. Your absence the start. Of a long playing record. Of scenes and conversations. That are not out of place. Or kilter with you death …. And in The Age of Epigram. When an out-of-kilter cummerbund.
