We are spellbound #GoToThePoets
The poets make good on Kim Moore’s promise of ‘a beautiful, haunted, living forest made of language’
The human voice has incantatory power: fact.
A fact that is, to borrow one of Katharine Towers’ lines:
‘…quite ordinary
All the same
a glory’
A deeply moving evening, listening to the extraordinary Hannah Hodgson ♿️ reading from her recently published Seren collection '163 Days' - thank you Dr Kim Moore and Wordsworth Grasmere #GoToThePoets

Huge thanks to Wordsworth Grasmere for inviting me to read as a guest poet at tonight’s #GoToThePoets . I had a ball reading poems from A VOICE COMING FROM THEN & sharing some new work. Thanks to the always fabulous Dr Kim Moore for hosting and to all the wonderful open mic-ers!
When I read I’M LEARNING TO SHOUT ‘Oi!’ I’ll ask the audience to join in shouting the word ‘Oi!’ whenever it appears in the poem & at last night’s Wordsworth Grasmere #GoToThePoets event so I’m delighted to see how many people got involved via the chat. Just look at all those ‘Oi!’s!
