These are prints I've made of some of my poems. The prints are mostly etched, with the text added later. I'da preferred to upload the images here, but the rules don't allow that, so they're hosted elsewhere.



This first poem (The Inadequacies of Skulls as Containment Vessels) is spread across 4 prints. Each print contains two verses.

Oracle was inspired by my one and only visit to a Tarot Card reader. I was fascinated by the masterly spiel that accompanied every card. What the card-reader was saying was nonsense, but it sounded very deep and meaningful.

Is there anyone who hasn't lain in bed crying, imagining their lover cavorting happily elsewhere?

Epidemic was, originally, the first section of a long garbled epic poem. The first few sentences said as much as the whole poem, so I scrapped the rest.
