Tuesday Poem: Video Poems from the Book Tour + Radio Interview

I was going to resume normal Tuesday Poem service this week, but instead, here is some YouTube video from the Men Briefly Explained / Tongues of Ash book tour, plus a radio interview I did for Radio New Zealand's "Arts on Sunday" programme.



If you think "I would love to buy one of the shiny books featured in this video", here is how to do so:



Men Briefly Explained
Tongues of Ash


Video Poems from the Book Tour



These video highlights from our Wellington event at the Wellington Central Library and our Eastbourne event at the Rona Gallery and Bookshop include (a) Keith Westwater reading (actually, this is the whole vid) ...







The West Winds Gang is back
Camera Obscura revealed: 1. The layered memories of a place
Papaitonga Reserve in the duck-shooting season
Evensong in a graveyard of villas
Winds and time


... and (b) Tim Jones reading:







Impertinent to Sailors
Belong
Queens of Silk, Kings of Velour
Baxter-Curnow Band Live at Hyde Park 1969
Epiphenomenon
... and then, rather mysteriously, I read "Impertinent to Sailors" again


Radio New Zealand interview



Sonia Sly of Radio New Zealand interviewed me for the "Arts on Sunday" programme on Radio New Zealand. Here is the interview in mp3 format:
