Bit strange is perfect for me

Posted on Mon, 27 Jan 2020

Bit strange is perfect for me. And I like that your poems have a specific style - they are very you, your voice - good I think when you are putting a collection together.

I love this one too. To describe a person as a mole is unusual but fits perfectly and then you carry it on through the whole poem. And what you say is true - if we burrow ourselves our reality does become distorted, and memories invade...

Posted on Tue, 21 Jan 2020

Catullus for me was a 30(+) year flashback.... You did Latin at uni? I only went to O level. I don't think there was an option to go further.

Posted on Sun, 19 Jan 2020

This is brilliant again, the pairing of similar words and how this carries on to a range of perspectives. And 'formic' - I love that. Never heard it before but close enough to the French and the context to guess its meaning.
