Kookie Forever (Recorded Live at the Blue Walnut, Torquay)

Hello, here’s a poem that I performed the other night. It comes from my collection Woodview, published by Beatnpress a couple of years ago.

It’s about the time we cleared out my Grandfather’s garage after he died, and we found some graffiti on the wall written by my mother when she was still a girl, in 1959. The graffiti said ‘Kookie Forever’, and it referred to a character in an American TV show that she had fallen in love with.

I hope you like the poem!
