#4 Riding the Unicorn by the Horn!

Posted on April 27, 2018 by Benoit Magician Poet and Wordcaster

So today has been a pretty crazy day for the Unicorn, She decided to try painting, and Ayse (https://www.instagram.com/aysebalse/) was very kind to let her come to her studio! It was great fun to imagine potential instant manifestations of the pictures in her mind suddenly appearing on a canva with only a few simple magic gestures as for all ritual…. not even a complicated spell of words to cast!

Ameyrica III Ameyndments

Posted on March 16, 2018 by Benoit Magician Poet and Wordcaster

The saga continues in Sheffield, with more new words to teach our future children! Now the Police has invited Amey plc in their control room with views develop techniques to use on fracking protestors. We are loving it in Sheffield. My poet self is still on bail but a roundabout performance is on the way….. although swapping corporate entertainment for coporate* entertainment wouldn’t really fit my schedule and plans. So, here we are, Ameyrica III Ameyndments is I believe the best so far, we’ve had such a laugh working on it, enjoy, Continue reading →

The Cursetakers #19

Posted on January 20, 2018 by Benoit Magician Poet and Wordcaster

So here is a piece that i wanted to express in a different flow that I had been up to now. One always has to catch up with oneself, and neglecting one’s own feelings is only postponing the time to address them.

This piece is inspired from a piece cara sutherland, a sheffield trees sympathiser wrote about her feelings in regards to the situation on meersbrook park rd on the 19th of january 2018. For having witnesses myself the whole saga happening in every streets I ever lived in for the past 12 years. Sheffield city council…. you’re doing great! £#%$! Continue reading →

Oh Well Orwell. Raven Tirade #10

Posted on November 23, 2017 by Benoit Magician Poet and Wordcaster

This animal Farm inspired story is inspired from actual environment politics. Both from Sheffield where the council and corporate giant Amey are trying to remove the city’s green heritage for profits, and from the Peak District where the Tory government under Theresa May intent to turn the National Park and other National heritage parks into un-necessary Fracking sites, whereas most European countries have already placed a ban on this dangerous practice.
