SHORT POEMS: MIXTAPE

My latest collection of poetry.


This one’s for me. Mainly so I can tell my crushing self doubt to ‘suck it!’ - Mat Lloyd

"Short Poems is the latest collection from British spoken word artist, poet, skateboarder and podcaster Mat Lloyd. After the success of 2015's 'The Cracks and Curbs EP' which saw him perform throughout Europe and culminated in his being featured in the BBC's 'Skateboarding at 60' documentary about creativity in skateboarding."

THE CRACKS AND CURBS EP

My brand new second collection of poetry.


From the introduction by Philip Levine:


"Mat had agreed to come and was driving over 8 hours from London to get to us. Anxiety hit me hard. Was Mat gonna get pissed with me? A talented individual not getting a platform he deserved and ringing me earlier from the car enthused by the thought of performing at the festival. He bound in and even though realising the situation wasn’t quite what it should have been, without hesitation grabbed a chair, dropped the mic, and just spoke out loud, captivating everyone in the room with his words."

DEMO TAPE

My first short collection of poetry, and one I'm still extremely proud of!


From the introduction:


"This is poetry that should be read out loud! Consciously written for a crowd of baying wolves, waiting to heckle the sacrificial poet, waiting for a chance to ignore and converse over the words of the poor soul on stage pouring their heart out. These words will not be talked over and this poet will not be ignored!"
