How are you feeling? You look a little pasty. A bit pale.
Pallid. Put out. Pukey. Perturbed. Sick. Sad. Sedate. Oh that’s just how you
always look? Fair enough. Get some sunlight down ya, Nosferatu.
When your Vitamin D levels are back to an acceptable level
why not get yourself down to the Scottish Poetry Library (EH8 8DT) on Friday
October 19th (6:30-8pm) for the launch of Mairi Campbell-Jack’s
double pamphlet extravaganza. There is the sweet and succulent promise of
homemade wine! Oh, and poems.
Once you’ve sobered up buy a copy of her book. Go on you
cheap skate, buy it. It’s a two-parter about the happy subjects of post natal
depression and the breakup of her marriage. You'll laugh! You'll cry! You'll cry a bit more. Party hats not provided.
Mairi Campbell-Jack’s debut collection, “This is a Poem” is
published by Burning Eye Books.
