Reposted by Daniel HindsDaniel Hinds @danielghinds.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I have a soft spot for A Modest Proposal which was one of my undergrad dissertation poems.

Reposted by Daniel HindsDaniel Hinds @danielghinds.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I reread Ted Hughes's debut The Hawk in the Rain recently. It is frontloaded with startling classics, the title poem, The Jaguar, The Thought-Fox, & The Horses that announced the arrival of a major new poet. The collection dips a bit in the middle & ends with emotive war poems. 1112
