Morden

Slightly different post today to try out a new idea. Leave your comments on the Morden event below, the rumour is it was a mighty fine one.

I just posted this on Facebook but I thought I would duplicate it here:

I wish I could take the Freak Lung Odes, everyone's own readings, Barry Macsweeney's poetry (Especially Luke's reading of the entirety of colonel B) the posters of Mottram, Cobbing, Bunting, Ginsburg, on the walls, Connie's touching and emotional response at the end, the chinese meal with Jeff H, using the big spinning plates as decks, and condense it all into a tight ball of energy and light, and add to that tight ball of energy and light an audience of about 200 people, and say to this audience that this is poetry, this ball of energy and light is poetry, and anything else that claims to be poetry has to compare itself to this ball, and if it is even slightly dimmer than it, then it does not have the right to be called poetry. Great Photos on Face book. Someone filmed it all.

RATS like POETRY

Did anyone get a photo of the rat??

My favourite moment was Posie Rider covering every inch of herself with insect repellent to keep the fleas off...

Jeff? Jeff? You know that area between like India, Mongolia & Russia? It's a bit grotty round there. Jeff?
