A super-dynamic and unforgettable slam-style spoken word performance from visiting featured artist @jeffcottrill.bsky.social last night at Survivors' Poetry at the Harrison. Also a warm and appreciative shout out to our other featured poet of the evening, the truly sublime Julie Cheung 🥰
SP returns to The Harrison in King's Cross next Tuesday evening with a stellar evening of open mic poetry, spoken word performance, music and solidarity, featuring two guest poets: Julie Cheung and @jeffcottrill.bsky.social. MC Pat Flowers. All are welcome! 💚💚
Another great night at The Harrison...with @chrisleeds.bsky.social seeing out the evening with poignant, lambent versions of 'Lakes of Pontchartrain' and 'Arthur McBride' ❤️

A very pleasant parcel-opening experience under soggy grey skies this morning - the Arcana Press anthology 'Smitten with the written' - which features my self-satirical poem 'Wordfish' (cue swordfish emoji, except there isn't one!) 🥰
A salutary reminder indeed 😔
And I am very happy to be in the excellent company of @sarahraybould.bsky.social and @ella-b-winters.bsky.social - among many many others! 🥳
