Dorian Nightingale

“reverie” from my recent poetry pamphlet “Songs from Last Imaginations”.
The poem describes the gentle descent into unconsciousness and forms the third movement of a suite of poems.

The Judgement of Cambyses (1483) by Gerard David (1460-1523)

Just Now (1982) by Ted Kooser (b.1939)

Another great evening of superb poetry. Many thanks to Matt for hosting.

TRULY BRILLIANT evening at the Black Bough open mic. Amazing talent. Almost everyone was there to roadtest their poems before their pamphlet/ book launches - some there for the buzz and the sharing. Humbling to host!!! Poets from Spain, Australia, Ireland, US, England and Wales.

Enjoyed hosting a night of big poems. Way too much talent in the zoom room.
