Dive into the ethereal landscapes of the human spirit with William Gomes's transformative collection, "Melodies of the Mind: Poetic Explorations of Inner Worlds." Within the boundless realms of thought and emotion, this anthology of poetry invites listeners on a profound journey through the innermost corridors of the self.

This is a collection of poems that we have written inspired by our personal experiences, while our minds have wandered in and out of the darker realms of addiction and confinement and the appreciations of life's more beautiful things that too many take for granted.

May Day is the long-awaited collection from one of our best-loved poets and former Makar of Scotland, Jackie Kay. As the title suggests, these poems cast an eye over several decades of political activism, from the international solidarity of the Glasgow of Kay’s childhood, accompanying her parents’ Socialist campaigns, through the feminist, LGBT+ and anti-racist movements of the 80s and 90s, up to the present day when a global pandemic intersects with the urgency of Black Lives Matter.

This Poem is about the art of cold swimming, and it is an art. You need eventually to be able to breathe properly, and pace yourself in cold water, timing is all important, observing the seasons as to how much your 'own' body may take.

the sunflower project is a poetic memoir that tells of the author's genesis; growing from the seed of innocence and naivety, almost withering into nothingness with the loss of self-love and self-worth, then being revitalized by rediscovery and restoration. after surviving emotional abuse and sexual assault, the author finally takes steps back to herself by telling her story through poems, and ultimately unfolds new petals kissed by the sunshine of freedom, healing, and the reclaiming of her identity.

Pssssst! Hey, You, Yes…YOUR Generation (whichever that may be). Are you looking for Saccharin love sonnets? Maudlin two-line musings? Droning co-opted hip hop lyrics? You won't find that here....

Kazim Ali is a poet, novelist, and essayist whose work explores themes of identity, migration, and the intersections of cultural and spiritual traditions. His poetry is known for its lyrical and expressive language, as well as its exploration of themes such as love, loss, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. "Sukun" means serenity or calm, and a sukun is also a form of punctuation in Arabic orthography that denotes a pause over a consonant.

Jackie Kay’s new collection is a lyric counterpart to her memoir, Red Dust Road, the extraordinary story of the search for her Nigerian and Highland birth-parents; but it is also a moving book in its own right, and a deep enquiry into all forms of human friendship. Fiere – Scots for ‘companion, friend, equal’ – is a vivid description of the many paths our lives take, and of how those journeys are made meaningful by our companions on the road: lovers, friends, parents, children, mentors – as well as all the remarkable and chance acquaintances we would not otherwise have made.
