It's against regulations. I don't want to go in the Shit Creek Review! Oh, don't be such a baby. I can't take him. He won't be long.

Why I write | Roy Marshall
https://roymarshall.wordpress.com/2015/06/25/why-i-write
Favourite poem of the week. Links to my poems online. Reviews of The Sun Bathers. June 25, 2015. Why I write, part one. My exercise book comes back with ‘see me’ written in it. But it’s ok. This time there are lots of ticks in red pen and an ‘excellent’ at the end. Why I write, part two. But my point is this. Despite each key-strike causing pain, despite the fact I will receive no financial gain from this piece, I’m still writing it and what I want to know is, why? Why I write, part three. You are commen...

Tiffany Anne Tondut, featured poet, | Roy Marshall
https://roymarshall.wordpress.com/2015/06/17/tiffany-anne-tondut-featured-poet
Favourite poem of the week. Links to my poems online. Reviews of The Sun Bathers. Tiffany Anne Tondut, featured poet,. June 17, 2015. I met Tiffany at the launch of Magma magazine, issue 61, and was struck by her poems (she read two) which seemed to have an authority and memorable originality. I felt there was an unusual vibrancy and freedom to her work ( ee cummings sprang to mind), which can only be a good thing. After publication in Poetry News, Tiffany’s poems have appeared in Rising,. You’re not jea...

Favourite poem of the week. Links to my poems online. Reviews of The Sun Bathers. I once waited nine months for a scrappy coffee stained printed rejection slip to come back from a poetry magazine. Needless to say I won’t be submitting to that particular publication again. I have also heard of people not receiving any response at all, although I am fortunate in that this has never happened to me.( NB- I wrote this in 2012 and in 2014 this is no longer the case! On other occasions you will receive a polite...

Favourite poem of the week. Links to my poems online. Reviews of The Sun Bathers. Loop of Jade by Sarah Howe. This book is rich in ideas and emotional depth, a book by a poet adept at interlacing disparate references in order to explore the nature of cultural and gender identity. Something sets us looking for a place. For many minutes every day we lose. Ourselves to somewhere else. 8216;Embalmed’ is a simultaneously fantastical and horrifying examination of the excesses of absolute power which reve...

Favourite poem of the week. Links to my poems online. Reviews of The Sun Bathers. More thoughts on drafting poems. August 31, 2016. Most of what you write can be rewritten and made better, or at least returned to. Any idea, half idea, image or emotion, can be the start of a poem. W.B Yeats often distilled his poems from prose descriptions. According to John Whitworth, Yeats genius lay in his infinite capacity for ‘taking pains’. Yeats by Sean Cronln. 4 A poem may take off well only to stall. It may b...

It is a function of poetry to locate those zones inside us that would be free, and declare them so.’ CD Wright. What does poetry offers that other mediums don’t? 8220;...
