I have felt compelled to share this every four years come November since 2008, and it only seems to feel more urgent each time…

Given that there are many questions and contradictions in the messaging being put out and the reports simply don’t add up… cc @BBCGlos @stroudnews @StroudTimes

Oh hey @StroudDC, given that you only told users about the planned lido mothballing on Thursday, and the deadline to submit public questions to the relevant committee was 12noon Friday, do you think you might extend that deadline?

There was not just an echo of Yeats but a hint of #precog in @adamhorovitz’s post in our #FallOfAmerica series:
the old men in their high castles
built of cloud
may control the weather
for a little while – but this
this is a time
of solid states made molten

delighted to have this poem up on @InkSweatTears
In 'Awaiting Update', @adamhorovitz's speaker narrates a surreal rail experience. Exploring loss, relationships and nature, the poem doesn't take long to get moving.

A new poem of mine up on @InkSweatTears this morning, remembering my father and staring out of train windows at the weird state of the world -

Tuned in to the Grimsby - Man U penalty shootout on Radio 5. Utterly delightful to hear the commentators’ genteel astonishment and increasing amusement as goal after goal after goal went in.

The latest goverment guff about farming is…

On the train to Hereford to record a poem, set to improvised music, listening to #Youth’s ambient take on Ginsberg’s Iron Horse (written travelling across America by train). A perfect confluence of mood, need and situation. All is light and blur and words rolling over sounds.

Huge thanks to Tom Sastry, & the open mic readers, for an excellent night at the Crown & Sceptre poetry and spoken word open mic last night. Tom’s new book, Life Expectancy Begins to Fall is well worth getting, if you missed out last night. @NineArchesPress
Well worth following this advice from @societyofautho1 if your book(s) etc have been skimmed to train AI for Meta.
Never give a Zucker an even break
