Will they adapt, resist, or become just another cog in the machine?

Ange: The Borrower of Barter Books is a light-hearted tribute inspired by my work colleague, Angela Foggon, who is affectionately known to all of us simply as Ange. Ange and I work together Front of House in the Station Buffet Café at Barter Books in Alnwick. Long before I joined the team, Ange was already a familiar and much-loved presence there, known for her sense of humour, quick wit, and ability to make people smile. Over the years, she has become one of those people who helps make Barter Books the special place that it is. Ange is also famously the smallest member of our crew, which has led to plenty of affectionate teasing and workplace jokes, many of which have found their way into this poem. The poem playfully exaggerates my unfortunate habit of accidentally bumping into her. These incidents, along with references to her Borrower-like stature, are written purely for comedic effect and are intended with warmth, friendship, and admiration. In reality, the poem is not really about Ange's height at all. It is about her character, her humour, and the positive impact she has on the people around her. It also celebrates something I greatly admire about her: her determination to give up smoking following a diagnosis of COPD. It was not an easy journey, but she showed remarkable strength and commitment, and it has been wonderful to see her looking healthier and happier as a result. Above all, this poem was written as a thank you. Thank you for the laughter, the banter, the friendship, and the positivity Ange brings to every shift. While the poem pokes fun at her size, it is really a celebration of the person she is, because those who know Ange know that there is absolutely nothing small about her kindness, resilience, sense of humour, or heart. This poem is dedicated to Angela "Ange" Foggon, a valued colleague, a treasured friend, and one of the people whose warmth and personality help make Barter Books feel like home to so many people.

A Living Dissection ATTENTION "I don't like hurting people's feelings. To me, it's the equivalent of breaking glass. It's bad luck. It lingers." LISTEN Most people wait for an autopsy to see what's inside. I'm doing mine while I'm still breathing. In a world that is dark at the edges, clarity is a lie we tell ourselves to sleep at night. We judge a man by a single moment, a single mistake, or a single weakness-without ever seeing the skeletal structure of his soul. I am tired of the lies. I am tired of the "confections" we sugarcoat our lives with. WELCOME : The Linguistic Anatomy This is not a memoir. It is a Linguistic Anatomy. I am taking a scalpel to my own existence to map out the three systems that keep a man upright: The Ethos (The Skeleton): The rigid core of human potential and the evidence of labor. The Lexis (The Flesh): The raw, unfiltered words we use to build ourselves-or to tear others down. The Resonance (The Nervous System): The emotional frequency we leave behind long after we've left the room. [The Stakes] Between kindness and coldness, between a hero and a villain, there is a line so thin it could cut you open. I've lived my life on that line. I've seen the "Greek God" in the mirror of hard work, and I've felt the weight of the glass shattering when a single sentence turns two people into enemies. This is a journey through Afro-Noir reality-a gritty, cinematic exploration of what it means to be a provider, a protector, and a person "stuck in between." I am dissecting myself. And trust me... there will be no drawing of blood. Only the truth.
