A poetic exploration of Oglet Shore, a fragile green edgeland clinging to the Mersey that is being threatened by local industry.
Liverpool Dead Good Poets Society are hosting a poetic exploration of the fragile green edgeland clinging to the Mersey and threatened by the expansion of local industry and Liverpool Airport.
Featuring the work of DGPS and other local poets, with a focus on the beauty of the shore as it is now, looking at the threats to its future from commercial development and climate change, and celebrating the community activities designed to conserve ‘Liverpool’s last survivng wilderness.’
‘The Oglet moon on winter nights
alights on backs of otters
while egrets sleep an d bats skim low
across the silver waters.’
