  The Strange Egg - A Symptoms Diary

  'Doctor, I had a terrible dream.
  In my dream I saw my own body, and I saw what you will do to it.'
  A woman is faced, month after month, with the birth of a strange egg. Her doctor asks that she take notes on her symptoms, documenting black blood clots as big as pennies, winking stars in her eyes, and relentless pain. As the woman waits for aid from her doctor, she begins to have strange premonitions of what will be done to her body. The egg, meanwhile, is watchful and demanding. Impatient.
  The Strange Egg is as gorgeous as it is horrifying. Highly original, it challenges long-held beliefs that people of marginalised genders are unreliable and irrational witnesses to our own bodies.
  The Strange Egg is a luminous gothic prose poem that delves into the mythopoeic to express injustice at the hands of abusive medical systems.

  Uninvited Guests

  This debut collection of poems, composed with no thought to commercial publication and discovered by Green Writers Press by happenstance, addresses events in the poet' s life that every reader can relate to — friendships, the beginning, middle, and end of romantic relationships, and the death of a loved one. And they do so with " stiletto-sharp" metaphors — " rosebuds stillborn in the falling snow" — and wry observations — " Trying Again: Like an old shoe comfortable for a while but still causing blisters" — that evoke from the reader a knowing nod and sometimes an outright laugh. Short, disarming, crafted with carefully calibrated rhythms and innovative rhymes, these poems " skulk in the grass" and, while your guard is down, " barge right in" to your consciousness, uninvited guests.

  “Scribire iussit amor” 
  Ovid 
  (“Love compelled me to write”) 
  As with most art, the words in this book were inspired by love. 
  Inspired by women I have loved and one in particular, who I may have loved before. 
  The woman who inspired many of these words is one of the very few truly spiritual people I’ve ever known. In spite of a life often tormented by cruelty and neglect, she retained a rare spirituality and compassion. 
  She enriched my life and for that I will never forget her. 
  These are some of the poems. 
  Written over the past couple of years (something creative came out of the COVID lockdown). Some describe experiences and feelings directly related to my relationships and circumstances. Some figments of my imagination. 
  This book is divided into three sections: 
  Life, Love, and Loss 
  You can start reading from the beginning through to the end, or you can pick a section depending on your mood, or dip in and out at random.
