Poet's new book reflects on experiences working with homeless community
The eighth Manx Bard believes people want a 'more hopeful version of what the world could be'.
Michael Manning has recently published a collection of poems drawing on his experience working with the Island's homeless community.
He says public opinion can often be dominated by anger, hatred and despair.
