By all means regale me with snow: whenever I strode through the summer shoulder to shoulder with the mulberry tree, its youngest leaf shrieked. Paul Celan, Atewmwende I (trans J. Neugroschel) #poetry

scars on her arm from twenty cuts. Now they look like white stems. I have only seen them twice. But I have seen them hundreds of times in my mind. Isn’t that how love works? @victoriachang.bsky.social oxfordpoetry.substack.com/p/a-poem-by-...

Proof copies of Each Leaf, Each Curve of Stem, my second novel, have arrived! I call it my second novel, but in my heart it's my first - thirteen years in the writing, baby. Yep, feeling quite emotional! 🌱💚✒️

On 9th April 1917, whilst smoking a pipe in his dugout doorway, the poet and writer Edward Thomas was killed. His greatest legacy, his writings, still influence the way we perceive place and consider our place within the landscape. #ww1 #linocut #art

“I was also wondering whether this image of the light filtering through, it’s almost a space in which your poems exist?” Great comment, brilliant collection.

Looking at this thing of beauty! Render by Billy Ramsell is a PBS recommendation and one of the most inventive and original collections I've read. Get your pre-orders in!

Watching Edward Norton, on Colbert, talking about Walt Whitman. I like Edward Norton. Lot of people would rather he yucked it up, kept it light & breezy, but it's refreshing to see someone care about poetry. He knows it isn't popular with the masses but he talks about what he cares about regardless.
