Buying poetry books, reading them, having them lying around ready to dive back into even for a quick moment, having them calling us from our shelves and our bedside table - that's a gift. Poets and poetry publishers are doing God's work

Anyone else crazy excited about the #Artemis launch? In other news, here's a poem from my @saltpublishing.com collection The Meanwhile Sites, set in December 1972. While the Apollo 17 crew prepare to come home from the Moon, a village mourns its doomed railway. petegreensolo.com/2023/04/16/p...

Still tearing up thinking about @jyotimishra.bsky.social playing Fairweather Friend at Words & Music at the Skep on Saturday. That song was on every single mix tape I made in the early 90s, an absolute joy of a tune. I'm so happy I got to hear it played live after all these years! 🥹💖

Look, I'm not saying you should buy my collection from @saltpublishing.com just because my work has been praised by the poet laureate, but I'm not *not* saying that either www.saltpublishing.com/products/the...
"Pete Green's poems combine an environmental and at times pastoral sensibility with a lyrical dexterity that can include rhyme and pattern, but there's also a mischievousness and irony at play in the fragmented thoughts and magnified imagery to prove Green is a poet alive to the challenges of the post-modernist era" – Simon Armitage

Boss. I'm tired boss. We been doing these experiments and studies since the 60s and 70s and the outcome has been the same in them all. The pushback against these measures aren't because they don't work. It's because they DO work and they'll include peoples they wish to exclude from society.
