We can also fall
from too much caution across
the slippery ground.
Back on the estate –
a cat squats in a pot plant,
laying its small worm.

"A series of directives will be flagged up in burbled tones..."
How can we resist the language of targets, management & perpetual busyness, or find alternative ways of seeing?
Have You Always Been Here? asks, but quietly.

From river to pond,
the heron steps and pauses
over a mined world.
'Have You Always Been Here?'

My partner gave me the title:
Have You Always Been Here?
A question addressed to landscape, memory, birdsong, trees, silence, and perhaps even a more care-attentive part of the self.
A new 3-part poetry sequence from @LongbarrowPress.

Written during and after the pandemic, these poems begin with confinement and move towards attention, encounter and belonging.
Not a book about escape, but about learning to be present.

My poems. My partner's illustrations. They helped us through Covid. Longbarrow Press turned them into three beautiful pamphlets. We're small. No marketing. If they sell, Longbarrow can publish more poets. Share this post and you'll be helping more than us.

The haiku in Have You Always Been Here? became a small act of resistance to what Jenny Odell calls the attention economy.
A practice of noticing. Looking longer. Not outstripping.
New blog post.

Today, the country goes to the polls. The nation decides its future.
This is our chance to vote for change.
We’ve had 14 years of Tory government, 5 Prime Ministers, but the result is the same - decline and chaos.
Don’t waste this opportunity. Vote Labour. 🌹
