Another week, another radical reimagining of everything I had decided on previously. I’ve rethought the weekly roundup idea. That being said, I do need some form of structure. Perhaps I’ll introduce monthly categories: Book of the Month, Performance of the Month, Thought of the Month (although, well, I’d hope I have more than one of each in the thirty-odd days comprising a calendar month)?
We’re currently reporting on Q1 at work, so translating that to this blog – I’ll implement structure in Q2. In the meantime, let’s discuss experimental poetry.

The universe does not centre on Swordfoosh,
Gripes Stompie with a demonstrative flourish.
My attempt at driving people to this blog has mostly been through Instagram, where I post images (usually royalty-free from Pexels, thought the above is one of mine) along with a Google Translate(d) poem. Does this count as experimental? The Pushkin Gallery in the Russian city of Zheleznovodsk followed me, so I must be doing something right.

In pursuit of correlating conundrums,
The victorious Swordfoosh trumpets.
I’m strangely tempted to return to my weekly roundup idea. I’ve been in two countries again, still reading Immortality, and attended David Ireland’s play Cyprus Avenue (featuring my favourite actor Stephen Rea). The latter severely traumatised me. Which I guess was the point.

But coming back to the poetry, I took a walk with my grandmother through my neighbourhood this evening. And as we walked, inspiration struck.
Transcendent through the towering trees,
Walking this road Swordfoosh feels free.
