It’s December. You want poetry with guts?
Try this: "No flinching. Just beauty and broken concrete."
Under £10. Fits in a stocking. Hits like a brick.

Book cover of This Wilderness & Other Concerns by Martin Kennedy Yates, published by The Broken Spine. The cover artwork depicts an urban canal or waterway running between old brick and industrial buildings, with graffiti on one wall and a dark, moody atmosphere. A quote from writer and poet Jonathan Davidson reads: “These poems are a pleasure both to encounter and to read.”

Perfect Christmas gift ~ The Villagers paints an intriguing picture of a 1950s English country village, where not everyone is who they first appear to be.

I have two new poems out today in The Candyman’s Trumpet Issue 6, including this one, 'Planetbound' 🌠

Many thanks to @dreich.bsky.social!

#poem #poems #poetry #poetrylovers #poetsofbluesky
Planetbound Little boy on a hill shields his eyes from all cars and people, inch-by-inch, crawling home, where a fireside squeeze awaits. Not for he glow the lights from adjacent conurbation; nor for him sound the horns of impatient, long-tailed beast. Without heed, up he climbs, wanting only for dark horizon. Other worlds, different lights, skyward denizens softly call. Still to him, this must fall; to deliver some silver lining for his heart’s reservations, these twinkles’ demure complaints. ‘Often rash, seldom swift, towards lovers, they keep on moving. Planetbound, scaling crests, we shall meet in the stars one day’.

“Mr. Palm Beach” may be my weirdest story yet, but it’s a good kind of weird, I promise. What do you think?

Thanks to @kimmagowan.bsky.social and everyone else at @pitheadchapel.bsky.social for giving it a great home!

One of my favorite lines from London Bridge. It captures that moment when you realize nothing is what it seems.

Well, I've officially sold over 6000 copies of my book!

Not on Amazon though.

Thanks to Lavraria Lello and their affiliate stores - 3300

The APEL - 2500

Amazon and others - ~400

Totally crazy! I didn't expect to sell 100 of them, let alone thousands.

Future looks bright.
