Lily Brown writes with and against things in poems that are coiled up tight as springs (or snakes). A believer in the power of the line, she writes, 'I think the plastics<br>and sink them' then 'Where is the sand<br>man hiding the dirt. ' These terse, biting poems will make you look around and wonder.
I still find it tough to be around girls because I always say the wrong thing. If a friend asks me if I look fat in something, I'll be honest and say 'Yeah' when she does.
