On September 10 we will be celebrating the 91st birthday of our beloved yet departed Mary Oliver at Poetica Petit at @woollahragallery . Charles Freyberg, Lily B, Bob Dylan Growing up. That’s the underlying theme of my next writing project with @jessicachapnikkahn . We are going back to our early teen years and imagining the letters we may have written to each other if we’d known each other then. So I’ve been diving in to my past. Going through the boxes, the letters and my first poems. I wrote these when I was 14. I remember it so clearly. I made my first poetry journal out of a foolscap exercise book that I contacted. And the line about the flock of birds was a bit of a lightbulb moment. That I could express time through nature. And death. Of course I was a little obsessed with this idea of death and endings and the existential nature of our lives. Seasons, birds, trees - who knew that Mary Oliver would be waiting for me on the other side of teen-hood? This one is selling fast. @bobdylan ‘s Blood on the Tracks is perfection. Join us at A Whole Album on July 21 at @163clovelly . But please read poems and write poems. Yes, we have the grand old open mic this Thursday night at Poetica Petit at @woollahragallery ! Poets you are welcome to share your words. Theme this month is POSTCODES. 3 mins max. Tell us about a place you know. Maybe you lived there. Maybe you dream of going there.
