Poetry performance
​'Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world' - PB Shelley 
True or false? Or both? They don't appear in Hansard and are rarely quoted as evidence in court. But when we wish to find meaning, when we grieve, love, fight, then poets become important. 

Available for weddings, parties etc.
Mingling among the guests, I recite poetry on demand from memory. Shakespeare, Tennyson, Larkin, Kipling, Duffy, Dickinson, Yeats, Browning, Keats, Marvell, Owen, Sassoon, Auden, Whitman, Eliot, Graves, Hopkins, Coleridge, Poe, Brooke, Rimbaud, Neruda, Pound, Bukowski, Betjeman, Donne, Blake, Rossetti, etc.
