Sean Burn

week 34

one flag every twenty-five participants
wear white-smart-shirts dont media
altreich-altreich-altreich 

minister (monster) for london askin
whether its “appropriate” to hold notting hill
carnival in “proximity of a major national disaster”
 

carnival more than ever, grenfell beat no beaten
genst those carnivores bonfire ov redtape
get on the road, get on that road
jouvert jouvert jouvert

 

week 35

goves portfolio is yeast, jeremy hunts diversifies from
wetwipe to crutch-kicking
& nhs patient empowerment division talks ov renewable
energy from patients
– we burn & how!

criminology lecturers run reading lists past prevent
“in case there was anything too critical”

an unknown haze irritates the sussex chalk cliffs
up to fifty people complaining near birling gap
police tweet clarification into this chemikaze
they dont believe france is to blame

Sean Burn’s last two full-length collections of poetry are both in print: dante in the laundrette (Smokestack Press, 2012) and is that a bruise or a tattoo? (Shearsman Press, 2013).
