Mike Weller Poetry Feller, Posie Rider (Mossad Press*) (out of print)

Is Posie's title built around "A Minimus Postcode Poem" first read at Writers Forum (New Series) workshop and dedicated to Doug Jones?

If so, time it saw reprint. Has lines beginning and ending ---

"and the little electronic coloured lights go ▪▪▪▪
Phone Cards ▪▪▪▪ Mobile Phone & Accessories ▪▪▪▪
Repairs & Unlocking ▪▪▪▪ "

The poet's myEBook version has some of those so-crap-as-to-be-almost-pointless blurry cell-phone low rez YouTube images Weller pretentiously calls "videographs" just like this one here ---



*Mossad Press is an imprint of Sad Press Books
