He is interested in experimental or alternative thought processes and sifting through the realities sometimes found in the darker corners of life. Happy on a bicycle all day or in a bar all night he has recently been published in print and on line in such publications as Misery Begins at Home, The Best of Manchester poets II, Incandescent, Along the Iron Veins, The Big Issue in the North, Lynx, Turbulence and The Ghazal Page. His first solo collection of ghazals First of All I Wrote Your Name is to be published by Stairwell Books in the fall of 2012. Read more at www.winstonplowes.co.uk.

Blanket Coverage

Waking next to you,
you've stolen all the blankets
in innocent sleep.

Curled up at your feet,
the cat has seen you do it
but pretends to nap.
