For those of you who like their poetry a little less serious, the June edition of Martin Parker's quarterly Lighten-up Online is now outMartin was a finalist for the Strokestown humorous poetry prize both last year and this and has a soft humour that is utterly bewitching. One of his poems, written in the style of Longfellow but from Hiawatha's mother's point of view, has me smiling every time I think of it (Minihaha - "bloody woman from Dakota")
