Hi Karen, welcome to WOL, I run the open mic nights in Bolton where WOL was founded, hope you like the site, its done me proud since joining 4 years ago! Performance poetry, running gigs, playing guitar!

Enjoyed your dentist poem, not a million miles from something I wrote - see link (and still perform as a good punk rant) 3 years ago

best wishes Jeff X

Thank you for the nice comments.

I have a recording of me reading The Dentist which I will upload.

I haven't got used to finding my way round this site yet.

The denist brightened up my sunday morning at work,made me smile--I think we can all relate to what you have written in this amazing piece of verse .Every dentist should have this up on their notice board and patients reading it would smile and feel more relaxed in the torture chair.

Hi Karen - welcome to WOL. Great poems here on your profile, and they would sound really good as a performance pieces. Re knowing where to start with performing your stuff, Write Out Loud has a really good gig guide (complete with map!) so you could take a look and see if there is anywhere near you that has an open mic and go along. I'm sure you'll love it! And if you put a poem on the blog section here I'm sure you'll get some feedback - might help you decide which type of poetry you're best at. But hey! Why not just do both anyway! ;)

Buy a map. You may have to travel!

Good luck finding a new one, though with only one filling perhaps you won't need to. You obviously have strong teeth. Or you are very young!!

Thank you for the welcome.

PS I have been told today that my Dentist's practice is to close at end of June- any advice?
PPS I have only one filling.
