Their is an open mic poetry night at the tin angel pub in coventry which is cool but feel disillusioned by where poetry isn't going. I've accepted I'm flawed but think you can make a better point with some poetry read aloud, for instance it can be more moving, funny, and reactions can be gauged which can change you as a writer.
For national poetry day my city which is home to Phillip Larkin (Coventry) has not got a single worthy thing planned around poetry.
Time for anarchy - well its that or the polish working mens club reading with no teeth.
Where do you plan to go with your writing?
