' ...a poet of mesmerising sincerity,
whose deceptively seductive delivery
conceals a fierce commitment to truth
and a dry sardonic wit'
'A highly evolved Human being'
'It's seldom we get to hear words alone... I listened'
'this is not ramshackle haphazardous, hope my rhythm and exuberhance masks my crapness poetry... this is the real thing'
I'm studying in London at The British Academy of New Music, leading workshops, gigging all over and teaching drum kit in Bristol. That sounds great, could you send me an e-mail about your night? Are you working at festivals again this summer?
Lovely to see you (and your fabulous dress) last night. Sorry I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to you but I hope you (and the dress) had a fantastic night out. See you soon, Sarah x
Hello missus, Loved all three of the poems you've just added. Sick Mermaid has such a beautiful haunting quality and works so well with your voice too. It's all good! Hope you're well, Sarah xx
Hi Amanda, I found you through Helen below.. Really loving your work its fresh and unique with a powerful universal message..'Credit crunch' is amazing.
Just listened to 'credit crunch'. I've got that American Indian quote on a postcard, on my wall above my desk - I can see it now. Top poem - all power to you and your allotment. HT
Jesus, I didn't know you did this gal, all this poetry performance. You are awesome!!!!! The delivery is so provocative and thoughtful. I can see the affect of a certain person in your work..ha! Keep up that creative force and delighting in finding new and undiscovered pleasures in your sweet life. Love fOXY X
pleased to meet you over this hybrid buzzing electronical world. I became quite seduced by your work, so thanks for inviting me to listen! I might be doing something in Contact about the same time so I'll come watch you perform. All the best Rachel Parry
Hey - hopefully will be around, not sure yet if I have to do anything else, but would love to play back up there agin :-) I haven't listed to poetry since my days of having to study Caroline Duffy in GCSE days but its not just the words, but your voice, especially in The Sick Mermaid that tickles my spine - really like. x
