Sketch Poetry
Poetry read in a fitting setting, by teacher and poet of no great renown: Joe Riley.
Great poems from a range of eras read aloud in a place that befits them. No lectures, not too many long words or academic pretence; a chance to sketch out how a poem reaches your heart.

The Building-Philip Larkinš„
'Higher than the handsomest hotel...'
Joe has, through some tricky circumstances, been visiting a particular building and thinks you should wander the corridors with him.
If it doesn't come through in this episode: my absolute respect for all NHS staff that keep these buildings going, and especially to the good folk at University Hospital Southampton.
