Blog on Poetry - amateur and published young poets.

All the other kids had nicknames is a blog by first time published poet Richard McDermott. Here he considers the work of poets that have had influence upon him like Larkin, Hughes, Lear and Lewis as well as looking at the current modern scene. From Glastonbury to Edinburgh, from Cooper Clarke to pop lyrics, he discusses the merits of all. Intersperses are his own inner city influenced efforts.
