@SussexWildlife Great to see them in action. I've got some growing rapidly in my tiny raised patio pond!

@MichaelRosenYes @AmyBotfield For example the social worth of his personal swimming pool while his own constituents lose their public pool.

If Sunak wants to interrogate the 'earning potential' of university courses, we should interrogate him about the 'social worth' of his earnings.

@Shadow2train I'm so sorry for your loss, Ian. She looks beautiful.

My mum, Mavis Dell Lilley, 21.02.1932 - 02.07.2022. It was her funeral today. I am grateful that she was in our lives for as long as she was.

@nancycampbelle Aw, want some of these for my mini pond - well the mini fish anyway!

Special delivery! Box of @magmapoetry Solitude issue co-edited with @IsabelleBaafi & @ilya_poet . The germ of an editorial idea is now reality. Individual copies being posted over coming days but a huge thank you to everyone involved & all supporters 🙏🙌❤

@Shadow2train What a beautiful tribute. So sorry for your loss, Ian.

My mum died peacefully in her sleep yesterday. Here are two of her poems, the untitled one from the late sixties, when she split up with my dad, and ‘Ross Island’, from a trip to Canada in the 2000s. ‘Life is wonderful,’ she said to me on Friday, ‘I want more of it.’

I had a poem published in the winter issue of The Poetry Review.

@MohammadRazai Congratulations, Mohammad. It's a wonderful poem❤️

@LauraScott112 For me it's always his eyes - with or without hair 😀

Young, unbald Picasso

@susiecampbell Thanks for the reminder to get this, Susie!

So happy with intro to my ch on Stein and Mullen - just the emphasis I’d hoped for. ‘Susie Campbell explores the ways in which, historically, prose poems have destabilised discourses surrounding the domestic environment and even the body within that environment’. Great editors!

@LauraScott112 I've been blown away by your book *So Many Rooms*, Laura. Lovely to meet you at Heffers, Cambridge, and to hear you reading from it. Not surprised London Magazine wants more!

So happy to have a poem in here and a poem I actually loved writing ❤️

@JeremyOver2 @AMcMillanPoet @Shadow2train @Carrie_Etter @brandonwintpoet @seminewblack @pswordwoman @danielsluman @cathyparkhong @VChangPoet @KazimAliPoet @kimmoorepoet @RaymondAntrobus @billherbert @lindaroseblack @VikShirley @postpran Just seen this, and honoured indeed.

I'm always trying to be aware of poets and who is doing good work, but so many poems get published it's hard to keep up. Recommend a talented/skilled poet in the comments, please. If you get tagged, recommend another poet, and so on.

@Shadow2train @VikShirley Yes, sorry to have missed.

@VikShirley Thank you, Vik.

Had a great time at the Glue Factory! Thanks to every one who came to and read at the second Surreal-Absurd live event! See you next time. 🥳🥳🥳

@wondykitten Thanks for the reminder to get this!
