🎉My pamphlet MATCHES comes out with @VervePoetryPres 8 Feb. Not an easy book to write but a necessary one. Huge thanks to the exceptional poets who blurbed & supported this book, and to @stubartholomew.
*Launch dates in Dublin & Belfast coming soon!*

I wrote about @c_makris’s important exhibition IS THIS A POEM? currently at @MoLI_Museum, & talked to him about his work, avant-garde, and the need to widen poetic perspectives in Ireland and beyond for @booksirelandmag. Hope you enjoy!
