I am a Brummie living in North Somerset who loves to write but gets distracted with other things. I enjoy horror/fantasy and anything that provokes original thought.

My literary heroes are Clive Barker, Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft.

Everyone should read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four .

I have work published by AlienBuddha Press, Loft Books, BlackBough Poems, DarkWinter Literary Magazine and Paragraph Planet.

A powerful evocation bringing together so much imagery from nature whilst sound echoes of animals becoming meat for tables. Very much a Di poem so well done, of course. Paul :)

I'm looking forward to that ".. delicate kiss from tulips". Spring is definitely in the air as winter fades. Eloquently said, of course. Just lovely. Paul

I love the idea of visiting movie locations to absorb the emotions. I remember going to Belfast to see the Titanic museum. The former shipworks are close by. The atmosphere was tangible.

Enjoyed your poem, Rhiannon.

My guess is maybe "Ratatouille" the movie. I haven't seen it so I am probably wrong. I do like this IP as I'm a bit of a movie buff.
