Delirious Verse

First Nettles collects poems written between 2021 and 2024, from precarious off-key lyrics to sprawling elegies of damaged life. A book of flailing, desperate music, hurt and hopeful, held together by pins and gaffer tape, art and courage and comradeship. Includes the sequence "Seizures" (2022)-"perfect in its openness and lyrical disfigurement" (Danny Hayward).
