Your style has matured and developed since your earlier work, and whilst sacrificing a certain jejeune naivete, has more than compensated with its authoritative, confident imagery. <BR/><BR/>The Brighton Festival is coming up - I reckon I could get you a residence. You could easily become part of the Station Ensemble, a group of very witty and challenging Brighton Street Poets, who perform on a Friday night after pub chuck-out and have provoked some very intense reactions by pretending to be annoying drunks. Their theme this year is 'Tibet', which I think you'll agree is very brave. You up for it, then? Knock off a couple of ditties about the Dalai Lama, and you're in.Kolley Kibberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07055145770836351738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3480141481321177460.post-47766931456069144162008-04-06T23:28:00.000+01:002008-04-06T23:28:00.000+01:00Pretty good poem.
