If you jump on to the Spinifex Press website now you might be just in time for a 25 per cent discount on Two Lips Went Shopping — it’s Book of the Week! 

 

There are poems from both sides of the shop counter. Some a bit of a laugh while others are eye-rollers. Still others document important change — equal pay for example — yes I was working when that all happened. The book doesn’t stay on the shop floor though. It covers a range of social issues … Published a while ago I think it still holds its own.

 

(The title poem is another story. Small, visual and on the fun side it was inspired by Dada poetry.)

 

Two Lips Went Shopping was supported by the ACT Government through a 1998 ACT Creative Arts Fellowship (Literature) and I continue to be grateful for the chunk of writing time that provided. (I’m also sorry the ACT Creative Fellowships were discontinued at some point.)
