poetrypea.com presents a podcast with the UK poet David Jacobs. Now an accomplished poet in the Japanese short form , haiku, senryu, monoku and haibun, he started his poetic career writing long form. We take a journey with him through his career and learn a bit along the way about getting published, and of course about him and his lovely family. Joke warning… there is one very bad joke included in this podcast. Come along and listen, perhaps afterwards you’ll want to share some of your terrible jokes with us too.
If you’ve enjoyed this podcast, please do leave us a review on YouTube or where you get your podcasts and please share with your poetry friends. Thank you.
