Bookmarkquinn (Mark Quinn) – Poet, Author & Spoken Word Artist
Listen to one of my favourite poems, the original “Scrote in a Bubble Coat,” one of the first poems I wrote, which captures the playful essence of everyday life with its vibrant imagery and whimsical tone. The poem explores the contrasts between comfort and style, showcasing a character who confidently navigates the world, wrapped in a bubble coat that not only protects but also symbolizes a unique self-expression. As you listen, you’ll find yourself drawn into the narrative, reflecting on your own experiences and the little joys we often overlook.
