I do not speak . . .

My Muse, poetry 1 Minute

A golden heart that beats within

A gently undulating flame

That shimmers, sending light

To every cell and atom of my being.

In quiet dusk I close my eyes

To hear its words of wisdom

Advising when to write

And when to stop, suggesting

Words and lines. I do not speak

But listen, watching how it moves

And glows, always there, lighting up

The dark beneath my skin.

"We All Die in the End", (now with 5 star reviews on Goodreads and Amazon) is available in both paperback and ebook editions on Amazon. The book is an unusual collection of interlinked stories set in a small town on the Co Down coast. Some are grim, some deal with abusive relationships but there's a lot of dark humour here, and joy too. 16 of the 19 tales have been previously published in literary magazines, or have been broadcast, or both. I am currently working on a collection of poetry "The Red Petticoat".
