foundation ?
Beautiful poem, the love for your father shines through.
This man has the most beautiful images
Sorry but TS Eliot would be turning in his grave.
Miss Chuilleanáin, you better be on my paper 2 in a few days...
This poem is so emotive. Extremely powerful! Well done Roger! 🙏🏾🙌🏾
I love the way Hayes reads his poetry. He gets completely out of the way so that his words can speak entirely for themselves. Thank you for your verses, Terrance! You are an inspiration to me, and doubtless so many others.
I like the singular focus of Soho.
I have a copy of Soho here in Australia. Great pink cover. Awaiting the follow-up, Richard.
Up Late, Nick's 2023 volume, he writes a series about his dad's death, which is moving and highly recommended by me!
I have a copy of Feel Free in Faber and I have ordered a copy of Go Giants, an earlier volume from the UK. Bookshop guy said there are 3 available copies of the earlier book in the entire U.K.- I'm in Australia. Nick's prose is edgy too, he's a poet to watch.
As a Deleuzian, Lock's work appeals because, like Kafka, she's not attempting to express the inexpressible, or impose a coherent and conventional linguistic form on lived experience, so much as construct a minor literature. Raised with a strong sense of her Irish heritage, Lock carries English away from itself and opens up a kind of foreign tongue within it; forcing a dominant language out of its usual syntactic conventions and thereby making it stutter or scream and travel to its own external limits. It's no surprise that Lock is also interested in therianthropy, because writing at its best always effects a becoming-animal (be it insect, hyena, or great white whale) and transports us from the land of Oedipus to that zone of indiscernibility wherein we can lose our domesticated human selves and experiment with wild forms of otherness.
so beautiful :,)

Who’s listening in 2024
This is extraordinary poetry. I sought this out after reading her poem "Why Write Love Poetry in a Burning World," cited in Christian Wiman's powerful book, "Zero To The Bone."
lovely
Kit Fan was my favourite on the list, and after his reading, my winner. Congrats to everyone. .Ps: it would have been great to have the full video of the performances.

This is a joke, right?
I was just in Venice and saw these African sellers of trinkets in the Piazza San Marco. I asked my son, "Why are they here? What value do they bring to Venice? To Italy?" I know not says he. Indeed say I.
Hooked…everything you say, the way you say things, your expressions, are performance. So engaging, in a way hypnotic. Thankyou. Your students are privileged, I envy them.
On point.
I resonate with this.
Wonderful :-) Congratulations to Jason. Hailing from India, i think i can imagine what it means when one grows up to realise that the memories they carry in the flesh and blood and bones of their adult bodies are no less a product of the social and cultural evolution of civilisations down the centuries than of the biological evolution of our species down the millennia. May Jason continue to share the memories of civilisations flowing through all our bodies in poems that are yet to see the light of day. Thank you.
Amazing
Well done Fran, you were amazing, you 'are' amazing!
Fran Lock, wow, just wow! How did she not win?!
Fascinating
Oh, Katie. this is the hymn of our times.
Is Hannah single?
