I have loved both poetry and animation for as long as I can remember. Lucky me to be born in the age of the animated film-poem.
I was therefore delighted to be asked to pick ten of my favourites (each for very different reasons) to submit as the first in a series of “top ten” lists for Moving Poems Magazine.
Some are based on poems by poets I know and respect, like Tim Nolan and Marvin Bell–others from poets new to me writing in a range of English accents as well as Galician, Russian, Hungarian, and Catalan.
You can watch all ten, with brief commentary from me about each one, online at movingpoems.com.
