Beau W. Beakhouse, whose poem ‘Water Runs Endlessly’ is published in the debut issue of Lucent Dreaming, is a writer/artist in Cardiff. He mostly works with text and video. He is particularly interested in the spiritual, the metaphysical, the poetic, the radical, the experimental, the avant-garde & in small press publishing. He co-edits LUMIN Journal.
Writing is a means to express indescribable experiences; an attempt. A direct action to convey the personal/transcendental.
I’m working towards a small second publication. So far I design & make the books myself, so the text for this is finished. It’s called ‘An Exploration of Practice’, it’s a sort of prose/ poem/ essay about my own formations of a spiritual practice.
Still for the radical potentials of an energised creative scene. For future collaborations & networks of support for LUMIN, and from us for others.
Mostly from clearing my head, relaxing myself, allowing moments of inspiration to come. Calmness in myself seems to allow this to happen more easily. But also from spontaneous ideas that can come at any time.
Follow a kind of overall guiding process.
I have a short chapbook of poetry called ‘Poems from California’ which is available from LUMIN. This is poetry from quite a while ago now. I have some work in journals including Porridge & The Projectionists Playground, and a few poems coming up in the next issue of Theta-wave. In general I’m currently creating through LUMIN in many ways, so following @luminjournal (luminjournal.com) or @BeauWBeakhouse to see more!
