My stories

If the death of James Wilks had been turned into a short film

With each new slam the crepe of a boy with his face to the grass has never felt so miniature.

Revelations

A draft of a new poem. Crits much appreciated. Extract: "The stain glass windows depict Mary with cellulite, red halos of shame circle sweat on the messiah's brow. Suddenly, it's a foam party, the pulpit is frothing, bubble tentacles swell through the pews."

Hilda makes money

Hilda has a friend with a scanner and an inkjet and Hilda prints single-sided twenty-pound notes on light-weight A4 that she nicks from the photocopier in the Millennium Library.
Cherry

It was clear

The stars were sardines, the moon was made of brick dust and pyrex.
