It’s been five years since David Bowie died. Television and
radio have been full of documentaries and programmes about him. I’ve been
listening and watching some of them. At Christmas, I got given a book. Why
Bowie Matters by Will Brooker. Brooker is a Bowie fan and academic and has
written a unique biography and personal memoir of Bowie. I loved it – despite its
many failings. It has enabled me to review my own personal experience of being
a Bowie fan and has inspired me to write a couple of poems. I’m going to share
some of my thoughts here.
