[F.F. Teague]

Sorry; it's me again, with yet another question.

What does 'fresh poetry' mean to you? I know what it means to me, but I'm probably wrong.

I once described a poem on the 'sphere as 'fresh'. I'm a bit hazy on the details, but it was written by Mark Mc and I think it described a stop in a layby on the way back from an outdoors music festival. I think there were strawberries and the N got a seed stuck in his one tooth. Mary M and I thought that was funny; Ann explained it didn't mean he had only one tooth. It was subtly erotic and based entirely on personal experience without feeling mega-confessional.

I think Ann and Mary write in a fresh way too, along with lots of other poets on the 'sphere.

All thoughts appreciated :-)

Best wishes,
Fliss
