Rice Planting Song #4
Mjölner 23.06.10
Expecting thunder,
the sky's nest filled with hot coals.
But no such splendour -
they just keep drilling shot holes
Rice Planting Song #5
Caribbean FOS v Noble 24.06.10
I think that screaming's
my knuckles, now worked threadbare?
the room as it swings?
the leaking of compressed air?

SCHOOL OF FORGERY
A Poetry Book Society Summer Recommendation! Jon's School of Forgery has been called "an inspired, integrated debut, endlessly inventive, with a lively intertextuality and a wide frame of reference. The language is both playful and hard-wrought, words at high voltage, words as collector's items."
WHAT TO DO
Kirsty's debut pamphlet! Full of characters in trouble and containing a sequence that sees figures from Greek myth eking out an existence in a psychiatric hospital. £4 from Happenstance.
