New spoken word poem on Baby Teeth Journal
I have a new spoken word poem published on Baby Teeth Journal!
‘Don’t feed’ was inspired by a real life experience of feeding Schmackos to a magpie, then suddenly finding myself surrounded by many feathered Schmacko enthusiasts! At the time my city, was about to enter a lockdown and I remember wondering what would happen if, in our absence, these birds decided to take over? The result was this weird, spooky poem.
Listen to/read ‘Don’t feed’ on the Baby Teeth Journal website.
