This is me engaging in internet intercourse through the media of poetry and song. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COMMENT ON ANYTHING THAT TAKES YOUR FANCY! Genuine comment/critique/discussion of poetry/individual poems is quite rare (for me) so please say something; be brutal if needs be! The red emboldened links below will take you to individual poems with the most recent first. Navigate to other pieces using, 'Categories' or specific links at the bottom of this and the other pages. Click the title pieces to access the poem in full. A selection of videos of TWaTsongs and video-poems are also available when you click a link icon.

Ancient Grecians had no TV.

The Ancient Grecians had no TV
so at what did they gaze through the night?
They looked up at the moon,
and at stars all unknown…
in thrall to celestial delight.

Archimedes developed his theories
setting brand new scientific agendas.
We’ve moved some degrees
since 240 BC
and switched channels from the sky to Eastenders!
