Any minit

I wrote to Robert Hogg to let him know that copies of Imminent were on their way to him, over in Canada. He emailed back with a poem, which made me laugh, copied below. (Another of Robert's poems is included in Issue 4 of the zine, which you can order from my shop for only £3).

 

Imminent 4 is imminent! (for Jo Dacombe
 
Any minit
in a mint
Altoids are
 
asteroids
one time
immanent
 
in Wales
now eminently
imported by
 
Wrigley
Canada
from who
 
knows
where
they'll fall
 
to my tongue so
Curiously Strong
or so it says
 
on the tin
they could be made
in China or
 
Timbuktu
or simply fall
from stars
 


All proceeds from the zine support the printing costs of the next one. There will be more from Robert in future issues that I'm planning, so do sign up for updates or subscribe to make sure you don't miss them. 

Thank you for your support for the zine, for poets and artists who contribute, and for caring about the natural world.
