"Poetry is writing that infers far more than its literal interpretation." I write poetry to say things I cannot say any other way. The poets I admire most include Sylvia Plath, Brecht, Rilke, T.S.Eliot, Walt Whitman, e.e.cummings, Robin Roberston and Don Paterson.
Born in 1970, I grew up in Brighton on the south coast of England. I currently live in Middlesex with my husband and two young sons.
Changing the Wheel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sit by the roadside.
The driver is changing the wheel.
I don't much like where I have come from.
I don't much like where I am going to.
Why am I watching the wheel being changed
with impatience?
Bertold Brecht
