Baroque in Hackney: clinging to the future like one of those little clippy koala bears
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/04/clinging-to-future-like-one-of-those.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Tuesday, 1 April 2008. Clinging to the future like one of those little clippy koala bears. Well, National Poetry Writing Month has so far got off to a bad start. I know it's early days yet: my horoscope says that today I will succeed through creativity, so I can cling to that - although last Saturday it said I would meet my deadlines through getting a late start, and that basically sounded a lot better than it was. In practice. It's my...

Baroque in Hackney: just dashing through
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/03/just-dashing-through.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Monday, 31 March 2008. A technical issue at work has yielded this bagatelle from good old Wikipedia. I might add that it is possibly the best and most carefully punctuated Wikipedia entry. I have ever read. Traditionally an em dash—like so—or a spaced em dash — like so — has been used for a dash in running text. The Elements of Typographic Style. The en dash (always with spaces, in running text) and the spaced. Posted by Ms Baroque.

Baroque in Hackney: August 2006
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Thursday, 31 August 2006. Many appreciations to Erin at A Dress a Day. For this picture. She clearly has her finger on the pulse! There is nonetheless something about her hair. Posted by Ms Baroque. Links to this post. Labels: Elegantly Dressed Wednesday. Still crzay after all these years. And incidentally I find that very sweet, if alarming) - but there is at least literary. Posted by Ms Baroque. Links to this post. And I have been do...

Baroque in Hackney: before you read that Saturday travel section
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/04/before-you-read-that-saturday-travel.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Saturday, 5 April 2008. Before you read that Saturday travel section. This is learned and always-delightful fellow poet-blogger Puthwuth. I did it again. I do have to go down to Church St later but I can rest easy: as one of the endangered species, I may be a blot on the new order down there but I'm not exactly endangering any fragile ecosystem. Posted by Ms Baroque. The end of the worr-uld. 05 April, 2008 17:50. I am a poet, critic, c...

Baroque in Hackney: launch of mobile poetry archive leads to "April madness"
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/04/launch-of-mobile-poetry-archive-leads.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Thursday, 3 April 2008. Launch of mobile poetry archive leads to "April madness". Never a huge fan of April Fool's Day - I think I took it personally as a child because my birthday was not long after, and resented the implication - I have slightly edited this press release from the Academy of American Poets, and am bringing it to you a fashionable two days late. Tercet's CFO, Abby Abramson, says the widespread internet searches for poe...

Baroque in Hackney: Seek, as they say, and ye shall find
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/03/seek-as-they-say-and-ye-shall-find.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Sunday, 30 March 2008. Seek, as they say, and ye shall find. Long time since I posted up any search terms via which people have reached Baroque Mansions. It is sort of boring. But this one I like:. Elegantly dressed girls with pretty, bare feet. Posted by Ms Baroque. 31 March, 2008 00:03. Elegantly dressed girls with pretty, bare feet. Now that puts a lovely vision into my Sunday life. Thank you. 31 March, 2008 01:39. Richard, I know, ...

Baroque in Hackney: being the view; and the viewed
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/03/being-view-and-viewed.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Sunday, 30 March 2008. Being the view; and the viewed. The other day in Victoria I was standing on a traffic island waiting for the light to change. A couple of coaches went through the intersection on their way to the coach station (I could tell: they had "Victoria" emblazoned across their front ends; one of them even said, "near to London's Oxford Street!

Baroque in Hackney: your tiny hand is frozen
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/04/your-tiny-hand-is-frozen.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Saturday, 5 April 2008. Your tiny hand is frozen. Live from the Met in Zeffirelli's famous production. The singing, just incredible. Ramón Vargas a heartbreaking Rudolfo - I don't usually like tenors (with one or two exceptions. And please try to ignore the background noise) but he is amazing - and the [insert superlative here] Angela Gheorghiu singing. But oh my God, La Boheme. Or maybe that's just the commentary. What is. I am a poet...

Baroque in Hackney: not to brag...
http://baroqueinhackney.blogspot.com/2008/04/not-to-brag.html
Poetry, criticism and comment, now moved to www.baroqueinhackney.com. Tuesday, 1 April 2008. But one has begun National Poetry Writing Month ("NaPoWriMo" just annoys me, sorry) by writing the first (naturally) drafts of two poems, or two parts of one poem entitled First: the first. And First: the second. I'd love a third part for it, but nothing came to me today; maybe it will on the third. Because there is not room, but I like it - it will go in the next one.).
