This week as in many weeks previously I am breaking the rules. Todays episode features a selection of poems from MOTHERBUNNET by Laura Cooney. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

A plate of chips, that chancer the moon, stolen biscuits and stolen memories: the currents that threaten to drag us under and the life belts we cling to.
