I love it, so visual and playful and bizarre. German expressionism is a good call! But it's very elegantly writen, stylish and beautiful, in a way. It's very impressive. I love what's hidden in our subconscious!

It is patently ridiculous - the idea that private companies that need to make a profit to survive are somehow going to do anything for the collective good!

Thank you so much - really appreciate you reading and review. I find it amazing how much has changed so quickly - think it's too much, too quick - as humans we need time to adjust.
I remember the miners strike so clearly- a battleground. I wrote poems directly on that - this poem was more context.

Pros and cons - would have loved the ease of access to submissions, awards, all of it - so much easier than posting into the blue. Love keeping up with friends and making plans - and the access to knowledge - but the noise! And photos of messy nights! Evidence of everything - be scared to breathe!

Yes it's totally mad. Often think back and my head boggles at the thought that 25 years ago we barely had computers! It's all too much, too soon, too quick x

It is a very weird bubble. I'm sure there should be a better way, but no idea what --- just the volume of poems is too much to hold!

The spam filters are getting far more robust, though this one is a little more obvious! Really great about the bookings, excellent news. Have you approached the highgate literary society? So great what you are achieving here - and the book is extremely impressive
