The Book Bag: Make Up My Mind by Leia Butler
Welcome back to The Book Bag. I hope you’ve had a poetic week. Well, what an exciting week. The Christmas Gift List went live last Sunday. If you haven’t read it yet, you can here. Feedback has been highly positive, and it could return in 2026. Let me know what you think. I was so happy to welcome December’s Poetic Voice, Sophie Dumont, who is kindly sharing work from her profound collection Sculling. Read the first part of the feature here. Also, Sculling is one of my picks in the Christmas Gift List.

Out via @steelincisors.bsky.social is Music For The Last Couple by Paul Hawkins ... perceptions of normality, chaos, travel, the art of sound-making, fractured theories & Adam Curtis films. Selected text then fed into an AI photo-generator for added dissonance. Spoken words: On The Brink album.
