Yes, this is the catch-all depository for posts that make not even the most tentative claim to be poetry. I may rant or chunter about anything I please – after all, it’s my parley and I’ll decry if I want to. But I envisage that these posts will contain creative prose – short stories, for instance – or be about topics linked to creative writing.
The posts:

The only way to be on it comfortably is to lie like a whore on a brothel tea break.’

“Ill-fitting words to say banal things about trivial subjects”. An ignorant rant about the state of modern poetry.
The walk to school
A short story about childhood grief and its legacy.
