No new poems published this year and I think that is ok. Two coming out next year and another exciting bit of poetry news to be announced shortly too. I am still writing, poetry is still bringing me joy and allowing me to meet lots of interesting folk, and that's what counts. Happy new year all! 💐🥂

Really enjoyed this short book and I'm looking forward to seeing the movie with Cilian Murphy tonight. Has anyone else seen it/read the book? I found it such a great meditation on the futility of the grind, human conscience and family.
