#tingsandtimes — Public Fediverse posts

I've been a fan of radical dub poet #LintonKwesiJohnson since the late 70s, when I first heard #DreadBeatAndBlood so when I saw #TingsAndTimes in the library I thought I'd give it a read. Published in 1991 by the brilliant #BloodaxeBooks it's a collection of 24 poems. Turns out I have 21 of them in my record collection, so I thought I'd put a playlist together and listen whilst I read. Turns out that reading poetry whilst listening to the poet recite is quite a joy. I'll be doing it again.
