O TYM ODCINKU
We are finally showing just how basic we both are with this latest episode guys, so be warned!
We've been putting Oscar WIlde on the back burner since the show launched, but today's the day we give him a proper segment with a journey around his one-liners, plays, fictional works and poetry.
A little moan about Dylan Thomas being a bit 'up himself' doesn't get in the way of us gagging to share one of our most favourite poems ever published, and thank Taylor Swift for mentioning him in the new album 'The Tortured Poets Society that pushed us to feature the pompous Welshman.
Colm Keegan wants us to see the world through a horse's eyes, which we then do through his poem 'Howya Horse'.
A little bit of sad-girl poetry from Jose Cameron proceeds our Agony Aunt where we help someone who has been caught in the middle of two gossip queens at work.
Get in touch with us on Instagram, TikTok or email (thepoetrysdeadpodcast@gmail.com) and keep an eye out for our Patreon that we'll launch that will give exclusive access to our upcoming book club and ways to contact other members of the podcast 'poetics', which is the name we're now calling you.
Hope you love this one guys.
(Go Taylor Swift )
