I've worked in factories, hospitality, cleaning, until my knees and mind went 😅 living a much quieter life, posting stuff I write/make. Irish poet living in Glasgow, I make collages! Just doing my best to help anywhere I can to support artists/activists 💚

So, for context, for any new folks, I'm pretty much self-taught in everything, not here for profit, just hoping to inspire others if possible, share others' talent when I can. The poems I'm sharing from books I've since taken off amazon in protest. Just gonna throw it all out here for free.

Portents of things to
Come, one omen stood out, a
White crow, beak of blood.

A wild ride this year
Has been, by my estimate,
Four thousand haiku.

To your health, dear friends,
Mind how you go, a toast to
True wealth, friends like you.

Second chances taste
Like cinnamon, like autumn,
Cycles of regret.

Of the apparition, wish

Forces that could not
Be contained resulted in
A mass exodus.

Me, purring gentle warmth back
Into my cold heart.

The holly tree, berries bounce
As squirrels collide.

Hours of sour, bitter
Musings, a choking flower,
Dour rumination.

Of the hanging city, where
Justice is cruel.

To have them back, to hear their
