The river's wide here: it's
undecided: it's steeling itself
never to turn and go back uphill.
Hone Tuwhare's poetry is like a korero on the marae: part challenge, part embrace, always alive, with the promise of a good feed afterwards. It's poetry that fills you up. The 2023 Hone Tuwhare Poetry Series was poetry that filled you up.
The world was shifting and the poets felt it.
