“In dreams and future memories” Exploring more semi representational& organic form in my work. The process of being part of the world but not “of the world” is a dichotomy that most people experience. A half remembered dream, cultural myths, a memory. #visualartist #creativity

It’s illustrative that most of the leftist south is concerned with the Irish football team, while the north sits on a precipice. Can chew gum & clap at the same time and all that, indifference is also grand, but just don’t be cosplaying parts of the conflict here when it comes to election time 👍

Went to my local Restaurant last night. The owner asked me, "do you mind waiting for a bit?" I said, "not at all." He said, "good, then take this to table 7."

There may yet be hard truths in 'NAZA,, including evidence of Israel's systemic failures. But the reporting around it treats flimsy claims as proof of criminality.I haven't seen the film. This means I cannot confidently assess its editing, corroboration, or the

Today’s poem is called ‘Poem, Revised Draft’.
Poem, Revised Draft
 
I had to write this poem again.
I left the first draft on the train
and now it doesn't look the same.

The original was a paean to Love,
to Truth and Beauty; it soared above
the everyday and all that stuff.

It would have healed estranged lovers' rifts,
stilled the sands on which time shifts
and stopped the world before it drifts

further into quagmired crisis.
It was an open heart. It wore disguises.
It employed ingenious literary devices.

I have tried my hardest to recall
its words and rhythms, the rise and fall
of those lines upon their cadenced crawl

through the English language.
But it has only caused me pain and anguish
for there was little I could salvage.

It certainly didn't end with a line like this.

Today’s poem is called ‘Love is a Skin’.
Love is a Skin

love is a skin
that protects you,
a warmth that spreads 
from the tips of your fingers
to your heart

sorry – not love –
glove, i meant glove
