Note on the text

'Matchbox has been publishing poetry by a single poet every two months for the last two years in an actual Matchbox. Highlights have included all 12 boxes: Muzanenhamo, Griffiths, DiPalma, Jarnot, Inman, Atkins, Fisher, Dworkin, Thurston, McCabe, Welton and Jenks.

Issue 12 has just been released and completes the series. And what a cracker it is. OMEN by Tom Jenks, with a cover by Thomas Evans of Tolling Elves fame. And as if that wasn't enough Tom kindly went to The Isle of Wight to get souvenir paperweights for all lucky readers.

Although his is the final installment of Matchbox there are still a few issues of Matchbox 9 and 11 available by sending cheques but they will soon run out. Some old issues may be available in Manchester at Blackwell’s and in London at Bookartsbookshop. Clips of events may also be seen at the links below. Do be in touch for any further discussion.'
