About me

I’ve nothing to say of any great consequence about myself but that I’m a poet, live in Leicester UK, and began this blog in April 2008 as a means of writing a poem a day for a month..which, I’m proud to say I did. I can’t comment on the quality, mind you.

I tried to put an image up with each poem but if you can find all my poems from April on here, first prize is your luxury item!

It’s called ‘Heckle’ because that’s a working title for my one day collection:

heckle-to shout at, answer back

heckle-to comb out knots in flax

I reckon poets make a damned good job at trying to comb knots out-sometimes we just make a few more though!

I can’t think of anything witty to say here.

I hope to post poems by other poets and nuggets of something or now’t-glam,gleaming things that I pounce on like a jackdaw.

Not everyone likes me or my poetry..but if you stop by , give it a chance, I’ll buy you a tipple of whatever tempts sometime..honest!

And if this gets me writing again, well that will be cool!
