The Medway Poets

The Medway Poets were founded in Medway, North Kent, in 1979. They were an English punk based poetry performance group and later formed the core of the first Stuckists Art Group. The members were Miriam Carney, Billy Childish, Rob Earl, Bill Lewis, Sexton Ming and Charles Thomson (and briefly initially Alan Denman). Others associated with the group include Philip Absolon, Sanchia Lewis and Tracey Emin. Most members also practiced other art forms including music and painting.

Famous quotes containing the word poets:

    That is what all poets do: they talk to themselves out loud; and the world overhears them. But it’s horribly lonely not to hear someone else talk sometimes.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
