'I can’t help but wonder what Byron and Lucrezia would’ve made of each other. Two humans who have become mythical, their names adjectives for seduction and sin. Both had a power and a fragility, a fame and a vulnerability. And so, in this poem, standing in 2024 in our precious, fractured world, I look back, imagining the impossible: these two together; a fusion, an exchange of power, in an act of ownership and surrender.'
'Kerouac, whose stream of conscious-channelled prose that infiltrated everyone else’s consciousness, was drowned out by the tsunami of praise, ridicule, and alcohol he used to cope with the bitter fame his overnight success brought him. He passed away in 1969, a year and a half after Neal Cassady’s abrupt death. I wrote a eulogy for Kerouac in my poem ‘For Jack’, to recognise and commemorate what he was, what he ignited and what he became. It was included on my spoken word album Catalyst, produced by Jimmy Page.'
