2 poems in Quadrant
Quadrant published two of Andrew’s poems—”The Pleasure” and “Dip” —in its April 2016 issue. “The Pleasure” is reprinted below:
.
The Pleasure
It is my pleasure,
the pleasure
I give to the chooks
as I toss the scrapsand watch the scrapes
and scraps eruptbetween them as
with clucks and pecksand quick scratchings
and wild flappingsthey wolf down
without snivelling
the sops from our tea.
