Introducing… Luke Kennard

Writing about web page http://www.myspace.com/lukekennard

Luke Kennard

During a full moon, Luke Kennard splits in half. His doppelganger mutates into a wolf. His naked, shivering boy-self runs yelping and puling from the wolf, chased through Selly Oak, before diving through a star-carved portal into the world of imagination. He wakes the next morning, at the foot of the workers' statue in Centenary Square, shrouded in the paper kills of his hunt - poems grafted from blood, a newspaper blanket. Passing tramps pity him and offer him half a Ginsters' porkpie, but Luke Kennard shrugs this off, for he is a poet! His imagination is the storm breaking its shadow upon the mind.

I'm not entirely sure if these work on the page. Hmm.
