Most of the poems and performance pieces I have written since 1980 can be found here.

For those looking for readings to perform or publish, they are grouped by theme and season (see the panel on the right).

Individual poems can be found by title in the alphabetic listing.

WordsOut was created as an imprint for the print publication of Breaking the Chains (1992) and Welcome to the Real World (2000). Paperback copies of the later book are still available from Amazon.co.uk, Christnetbooks or from me.

Poems written since 2000 are in two collections: September 11, 2001 and Incarnate.

Words for personal and community events are collected in Occasions and Nonsense.

Some comment on the background to the poems can be found in the introduction to the last book and in the commentary to the sequence The sailing of the ark.

WordsOut is not for profit. All income goes to charity, in recent years to support a church and schools in northern Nigeria run by the Rev Kenneth Ononeze.
