Poems from the past 8 years, about archaeology, myths, animals, art, the material of being, the living matter around us.

We call on Peers to reinsert this measure into the Bill when it comes back to them.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

Troubling. I knew the PAS was under financial pressure and has always faced an uphill task, but I hadn't quite realised the scale of the problem.
The piece where I get to say everything that's bugging me about the world of detecting & archaeology & ask - why are we not more concerned about this?

Roy gets to school just after me in the morning, every day. By 7am he has done his pre journey checks and is off out to collect students.
He is a big part of our rise in attendance.
I hadn’t noticed until today that he has had his own hat printed. @willenhalle-act.bsky.social #weloveroy

Great summary from @hcrichardson.bsky.social - it’s devastating what Trump and his Project 25 people are doing to the USA.
However I think they have underestimated the resolve of the American people and the world. Good will win out. People will see the potential for cruelty and choose again.
