im finally getting up and reading some of my poems tonight at kardomah 94, if you are bored of the soaps, and the walls are closing in pop past, this is the first and probably the last time I'll be doing it and I'm cacking me pants. I have written a book of poems mostly about life in hull, I'll have a cpl of copies with me. It's been written for a charity called butterflies memory loss to raise funds. It's a local charity for local people. Next month during dementia week we're trying to get some local poets and writers to read from this book. I go under the pen name of P.H.Rose. If anyone can make it please do. Starts around 8.
Jack & Mary went to the Dairy Jack pulled out his great big Hairy Mary said " What a Whopper lets lay down & Do it proper ".... That kind of thing ? Could I guest spot tonight at all ?
Your life is your life dont let it be clubbed into dank submission. be on the watch. there are ways out. there is light somewhere. it may not be much light but it beats the darkness. be on the watch. the gods will offer you chances. know them. take them. you can’t beat death but you can beat death in life, sometimes. and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be. your life is your life. know it while you have it. you are marvelous the gods wait to delight in you. -- by Charles Bukowski
Not much into poetry but best wishes for tonight as it is in aid of a very good cause. And full marks for having the bottle to do it.
Best of luck RTR. An excellent effort all round. Bang a link up of where the book can be purchased or donations made.
Good luck Red Top, you'll do fine. If you weren't cacking your pants that would be more of a concern!
