Hello
I've only just worked out how to join, though have looked throught the B&I
list a few times. Introductions: My name is rhys trimble and I'm living in
north wales, from south wales. Published in magazines mainly, couple of
anthologies and a self-published pamphlet. Primarily I'm concerned with
British Revivalist tradition, particularly open field, bilingual poetry,
eco-poetry and a certain amount of typography, experimental work...I'm also
very keen on performance as means of tramsmission of 'literary' meaning,
and the fusion of poetry with music that works as both music and poetry.

a poem:
bluebells
for v.
clychau’r gôg
are
bluebells
gôg is
the cuckoo—
open supplanter
sit in our
breasts took
easy acceptance; remove
the circumflex
you get the gog
the north-
walian, pure-slate eyes that
shine with
fall-in-love
potentiality, non-scriptus——
drawn here to this
bell of phrastic line, to these snare——
currents
ringing in both terms
bell knots
at both tongues with
consonantal
fireplay———
llaethu’r llefrith
take the
mis from the
pronunciation
plot———pot-out the hâd
there is no brâd——seeding
no stolen morpheme
no break
beated
anim-
anim-
-osity
grass-rooted to the
spot by
achromatic
midge-night, light
by bent notes
that tickle-out of us day-time glows
smouldering by candlelight, waxing
ceroplastic moulder——dolls by the
last beer, last smoke———of dawning time
shamen of no
sleep
a morning
carrier of
close, cloze & clothes knot
of pulses & finger
open fingering fretted & blood
this this
morning
sobering, drunken
&
blue blue flowering.
