I'm writing a poem letter for a new lover, using gall ink I made last autumn. I could WhatsAp it but that wouldn't be romantic as ink-stained fingers recounting the flow of finding how her body, entangled with mine, created such a state of bliss that we lamented needing to rise. #queerpoetry #letter

Beautiful poetry so closely intertwined with nature. Loved all your poems, but especially ‘Lutein’. 💛

Oh my goodness - when one of your favourite poets brings all the compliments!!! Thank you so much, @helenlaycock.bsky.social !

Oh my. @helenlaycock.bsky.social 's poems are an imagistic masterclass

In the woods - my favourite place. I held a threshold ceremony for dear friends who are at a turning point in their rich lives. The woods held us all and received their gifts of letting go and stepping forth into a renewed commitment to the self. What beautiful work this is. I'll share poems soon.

Such a gorgeous evening of excellent poetry! Loved meeting everyone (virtually!) Loved the variety of poems.

Such beautiful poetry from @helenlaycock.bsky.social

It was an absolute pleasure to feature you, Wren. Very first time I heard you read at a @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social's open mic, I was straight into your DMs to offer you a place in @iambapoet.com. Only a few poets have caught my attention quite as readily as your work (and your reading) did.

When a master #poet makes your day (and year). Find me and all the other poets @markantonyowen.com has featured on @iambapoet.com Wave 23 is out very soon. Can't wait! Honestly, the work that goes into this is immense. Huge gratitude to Mark. www.iambapoet.com/wave/22-wren... #poetry #spokenword

Fellow #poets! I'm crowd-sourcing ideas: I ❤️ #reading my poetry aloud & want somewhere for #audio versions of my poems to live. Any experiences of using Soundcloud for #poetry? Or somewhere else?? (Pic demonstrating how I'll bathe in the light of your answers!) #WritingCommunity
