==Biography==
Born in Bermuda, Simons graduated from George Brown Theatre School in Toronto, Canada. He was well known in the spoken-word movement in Toronto, notably for his collaboration with Sandra Alland in the poetry-music collaboration, Stumblin' Tongues. In 1997 he returned to Bermuda, where in 1999 he co-founded Waterspout Theatre company.〔("BIO: An Open Book". )〕 Simons settled in the UK in 2004, and now focuses on poetry and performance.〔
His first volume, ''The Joshua Tales'', was published by Treehouse Press〔(Treehouse Press )〕 in 2009, and features collagraphs by Kendra Ezekiel. The work describes the relationship between a poet and another figure, Joshua, who can be seen as a little boy or the poet's shadow, and is set on the fictional island of Pocaroja.〔(René Hill, "'The magic comes in the craft", ''The Royal Gazette'', 21 October 2009. )〕 One reviewer, on Goodreads, called the book "startling, shocking and brilliant. Indeed mysterious and magical (and controversial)".〔(Tsehay's reviews > ''The Joshua Tales'', Goodreads. )〕
Simons was selected to represent Bermuda in "Poetry Parnassus", an international gathering of poets at London’s Southbank Centre in June 2012, featuring one poet from each of the 204 nations competing in the 2012 Summer Olympics.〔(Nadia Arandjelovic, "Simons to represent Bermuda in poetry Olympics", ) ''The Royal Gazette'', 26 April 2012.〕
