Whats On

Nathan Toy + Maurice Corlett (NSW) + open-mike, by Zoom only

This Saturday 3rd July 2pm-4pm we have wonderful poets Nathan Toy + Maurice Corlett (NSW) + open-mike on Zoom.

We will NOT be at the Moon Cafe. 

Nathan Toy grew up in Brisbane City, moving to Western Australia when he was a teenager.

Nathan’s poetry comes from a place of pain, human pain, pain that we have either experienced already or will experience soon.  Nathan hopes his poetry whispers softly to the still-sleeping darkness within you, and soothes it with a reminder: you are not alone.

JC The Boundary Rider (aka Steve Fulcher)   

VOUCHER

Steve Fulcher has lived some years |  Splashed some ink

And maybe had an achievement or two

But JC is a rocknroll rat | Soaking up the choons and spilt beer whilst

Underneath it all | JC escaping those death valleys | Where servitude breeds dissent
