"Seven bums and fourteen legs,
a brazen ecstasy which begs
the question some of us are asking -
is Peter Goulding multi-tasking?"

Neither desire nor dust


Dear Peter
Sorry, we couldn’t include you this time. Not because of the quality of your work but because of the huge amount of submissions we received. Please feel free to submit for our next call-out which will be made in November.
Best wishes,


I really like Abridged. Its a glossy poetry magazine from Northern Ireland and seems to be run by some seriously nice people. Somehow, I managed to get into their Magnolia edition (every edition has a theme) but have failed to repeat this herculean feat since. The upcoming issue will be on the theme Desire and Dust but sadly (for me, not for anybody else) I will be conspicuously absent.

But we will try, try, try again...
