Dog’s Breakfast is an an amazing and expansive collaboration of creatives and artists that had both a online and print presence.
On the theme of RESILIANCE resilience I wrote two poems, one short and untitled about growing through things, a small reminder of the power of change, the other about my fears, for the planet, for my city and the hope of rebirth.
Poems include:
Climate change is never far from my mind, being a consistent worry of mine since the age of 7 (yes, I was a really annoying child) so writing these, while slightly sad, was also a good way to adress these worries and how they might be overcome.
Reset
In a few years, love we’ll be sea foam voice lost, no kiss spilt from shampoo drain to the sea we’ll be bubble boats sickly green down a dry Thames all methane new life, fish bones in a few years, love it will be dust wild orange skys and we’ll begin again.
Untitled
I have grown into lovesick bones from pavement cracks between my ribs bloom roses freshly thorned.
