Henry Raby has been making poetry for the past few years. His first ever gig was at the Big Youth Theatre Festival 2007, probably the 13th. Which was a Friday.
Poetry isn’t usually the sitting in a corner crying type of poetry, or the I wandered lonely as a massive loser poetry. Topics usually include comic books, cabals of cartoons, the Ghost of Bob Marley, punk dinosaurs, anarchist seagulls, The Horse God, a Toast To Evil, drunk encounters with deities and Vampire Lesbians. Taking influence from John Cooper Clarke, Frank Sidebottom, Lewis Carrol, Phil Jupitus, Monty Python, Eddie Izzard, Mighty Boosch and other suck likes. Henry will make you laugh at a obscure reference to a 1980s cartoon whilst pondering the mysteries of the universe. In rhyme.
He also likes referring to himself in the 3rd person.
