Clive Oseman is the real deal. He's a word-mangling, show-stopping, scene-stealing, full-on rhymer, a sheer dynamo of poetic prowess whose words flip and dance and mesmerise with comedy and humour. You'll always feel alive when you listen to Clive!

Clive Oseman is unpredictable. His range from tear-jerking to tears of laughter keeps me on the edge of my seat. His performances are vulnerable yet fiery and his willingness to share his rawest emotions makes him relatable on both page and stage.

In this collection Oseman navigates the world with; a lyrical use of alliteration and rhyme, what it means to face difficulties in life, and how one small typo can change everything.

Oseman’s poems offer an insight into the man and his brave approach to life. The mixture of humour and honesty in his work will have you crying tears of laughter and compassion.
