#23: ‘Let us escape these attics’ | the scallop-shell
https://thescallopshell.wordpress.com/2014/05/29/23-let-us-escape-these-attics
23: ‘Let us escape these attics’. May 29, 2014. This post was originally commissioned by the Poetry Society’s Young Poets Network. Its subject is a poem from last year’s anthology of winners of the Foyle Young Poets of the Year Award. It’s written for a slightly younger audience than the rest of the content on the blog, and along with the usual analysis, offers a commentary on the process behind the approach I take here. Are the things it speaks about? These are the kind of choices that make a poem a poe...

https://thescallopshell.wordpress.com/2013/10/29/22-the-tight-dress-suggests-im-prepared-to-be-undressed
22: ‘The tight dress suggests I’m prepared to be undressed.’. October 29, 2013. I’m in the tight dress. The one that prevents dignified sitting. The tight dress suggests I’m prepared to be undressed. Do my thighs flash through the seams? I try to remember if the bed is made, or unmade. The wind is wrapping up the sound of our kissing. I wonder should I undress first or should you undress first. I’m not sure I can take off the dress in a way that looks good. I consider if I should save up sex until morning.

https://thescallopshell.wordpress.com/2013/10/03/21-like-a-pistol-in-her-pocket
21: ‘like a pistol in her pocket’. October 3, 2013. In the bakery, my girl. Grips a pregnancy test. Like a pistol in her pocket. The baker hands her. The key to the restroom. And leaves. In the back. There’s a small window. Men and women and. Children I don’t mind,. I’ve learned I can’t. Protect anyone by now. In the pastry cabinet. Is the baker’s daughter,. In puff rope. I imagine. The baker coming back. From his window, filling. Here’s yeast, here’s flour,. Fruit and sugar and water. Make more of her.

#20: ‘imposed fruit’ | the scallop-shell
https://thescallopshell.wordpress.com/2013/09/18/20-imposed-fruit
20: ‘imposed fruit’. September 18, 2013. Penny Boxall is a poet whose work has interested me since I first encountered it in The Salt Book of Younger Poets. And I was pleased to discover at the reading she gave at last week’s Poetry Book Fair. That she now has a debut collection, Ship of the Line,. Forthcoming in February from Eyewear. The artist regrets, regrets on top of varnish,. Erases his old certainties with fresh paint. He lays on new strokes that will surely flake. 8216;Pentimenti’ is a ter...

Missing the Perseids (for three years running). August 12, 2015. August 13, 2015. It’s Perseids Week, and Slate. On how to watch the meteor shower: essentially ‘on your back, after midnight’ today seems to be the consensus. Two years ago, I stayed with my lovely friend Natasha Frost. And saw the meteors from a French farmhouse, and ended up writing this poem, which came out in. A few months later. If you’re stargazing tonight, then don’t read this, go outside! Five of us supine on the patio,. Scouring th...

Whatever Happened to Verse Drama? August 5, 2015. This article originally appeared on. There was a time when poetry and drama were indissoluble. That time was most of literary history. In any broad-brush summary, the history of verse drama in English since Shakespeare is a story of decline. Today, most new plays in verse are greeted by a Greek chorus of critical loathing. I have a database on my computer which might as well be called Mean Things The. That play was Mike Bartlett’s ‘. Two of those words se...
