Council House and Silent" is the raw and unsettling debut spoken word album from urban performance poet and poetry slam champion Sadie Davidson.

Recorded at home in her airing cupboard after spending months in a hostel with her partner and two small children, "Council House and Silent" is a truthful, heartbreaking and highly provocative window in to life in Britain's underclass.

"Council House and Silent" offers more than simply "Poverty Porn' -beneath the gritty realism and rage at a failing system is an inspiring message of fulfilment, resilience, and the reminder that "you can get out if you fight".

According to Spoken word promoters, Sadie Davidson "Bites with lightning like fury and machine gun delivery" and has been described as "An absolute spoken word beast" as well as "Furious and unstoppable".

Without a clue (New Poem)

Poetz (New Podcast series)

Poetz are Andy N and Myth the Poet (aka Keith) 

Their mission to discuss some of the influences poetry wise and how this impacted on their own work and what made the writers tick, express themselves and how their work has stood the test of time over a series of new podcasts. 

First of all, Emily Dickinson. 

Born on December 10, 1830, in Amherst, Massachusetts, Emily Dickinson left school as a teenager, eventually living a reclusive life on the family homestead. There, she secretly created bundles of poetry and wrote hundreds of letters. Due to a discovery by sister Lavinia, Dickinson's remarkable work was published after her death—on May 15, 1886, in Amherst—and she is now considered one of the towering figures of American literature. 

Poems read out during this session were: 

1. I am nobody, who are you? 
2. A bird came down the walk 
3. I heard a fly buzz when I died. 
4. Caus I could not stop for death 
5. Success is the sweetest by those who don't succeed

Ghosting the fields (New Visual Poem)

From Friendship to Love (V)

Working in isolation
our love built itself up
from almost nothing
brushed against the end of winter
just before spring kissed the air

playing a secret with
everything we felt
throughout that summer
with laughter stealing
each other hearts

and then autumn
when a innocent picture
revealed more
than either of us expected
into a explosion of feelings

and now almost a year later
returning into autumn
the clues of those seasons
leave evidence of  a story unstudied
all over what went before

a hourglass turned upside down
as if to start a race
only to fall off suddenly a table
in a turning point of a film
completely changing everything

and a love that didn’t
just build up slowly over time
from almost nothing
but a feeling that was thereright from the beginning.

Press release for The Hour of the Wolf (Role Reversal Book 1)

It should have been a straight-forward mining exploration to a asteroid a few light years away by a mixture of miners and prisoners wishing for a early release from their prison sentences.

It should have been a straight-forward in and out of a carefully scouted out mine over in under a year which had enough coal and gold to save a dying race for generations.

But then the Wolf came , slaughtering everybody it encountered turning order to chaos, turning brother against brother and survival into a deadly, murderous game.

Told in tense, horror micro poems, The Hour of the Wolf is the first book in a new series 'Role Reversal' by acclaimed poet, Andy N (Author of 'Return to Kemptown' and 'The End of Summer) redefining horror and poetry in a very different way.
