Thankyou, David L O’ Nan for this “A Feature Poetry Showcase from Paul Brookes” that highlights my poetic journey so far, including my first published poem in 1987, and a recently composed seven sonnet monologue called “A Brandished Knife”. Love a woman to record this monologue, as it is written with a woman’s voice in mind.

Very, very impressive, Paul! A true picture that speaks honestly of life as it sometimes turns out for folks, whether they speak in this dialect & idiom or another. What I’m saying is, it’s both lovingly specific to a place and time and universal. Quite nice.
