Poet, Rye and Montalcino, Siena. Admirer of wading birds, especially avocets. Believer in speaking truth to power. Small steps against hateful autocracies and wilful destruction of our planet.

For poetry friends in the Hastings area…this will be the Hastings launch of my new collection, hooray! And with brilliant fellow poets Robin Houghton (also with Pindrop Press) and Judith Shaw (fresh from a Cuckmere residency). Come if you can, all welcome.

Short notice, but just to say I’ll be reading at the Towner Gallery Eastbourne tomorrow, 4th July, 6.30 -8pm, alongside 5 other local poets. Poems in response to the Sussex Modernists show currently on there. I think it will be a rather lovely evening. townereastbourne.org.uk/whats-on/poe...

I saw a goldfinch today, battling and dancing in the gale. And thought of this gorgeous goldfinch poem in Isabel Bermudez’s ‘Bar de las Reminiscenzias.’

Poetry pamphlets are great! Clare Best’s ‘End of Season’ (Frogmore Press), dual language English and Italian, also a song cycle, is a current favourite. Delicately detailed landscapes and vignettes carry a moving emotional arc. And Maria Isakova-Bennett’s cover image holds the poems beautifully.
