And I am delighted to have a poem, Mirror sonnet: the loft ladder, in the beautiful Winter 2023 issue of Gyroscope Review.

It’s great to be back in Toasted Cheese again – I have two poems, Cycle and Daughter, in Issue 22(4) this month.

Not that anybody’s glad to see the back of him or anything, but New Boots and Pantisocracies are organising a DePfeffelschrift for the departing PM, and I have contributed a sonnet, no less – Upon Westminster.

So one of the rare good things in lockdown was that I finally got to fulfil an ambition by taking part in a performance of John Cage’s “4:33”. It was organised online by Red Note Ensemble, with guests, and I was not-playing the treble recorder. And the poem I wrote about the experience is in the Spring 2022 edition of Gyroscope Review.

(John Cage’s score in proportional notation, which I used in the performance, can be seen online at https://hyperallergic.com/85779/the-original-john-cage-433-in-proportional-notation-19521953/)

My poem Luciferins is up today at Ink Sweat & Tears – really good to be back there, it’s a lovely place.

A good note [pun intended, sorry] to end the year on – I have a new poem, Contemporary Bassoon, in the December issue of The Lake.

The poem was inspired by a performance of Berio’s Sequenza XII by Pascal Gallois at the Sound Festival last November

Issue 36 of Northwords Now is out and I’m very chuffed it includes a poem of mine: Rooms by the sea, inspired by a painting by Edward  Hopper and by Anne-Marie Fyfe‘s “Edge of the Depths” workshop in Findhorn this summer.
