Love this image.

Sleep, the elusive figment, is above you, like cloud.

Placed my tote bag with @Zaffarkunials poem on Gaza in the window of @Cornwallpoetrylibrary. Such horrors in Gaza and elsewhere in the world. What can we do?

I support Palestine Action.
I hate all forms of violence.
I wish no harm on anyone.
I just want a kinder, fairer, greener world.
Apparently this makes me a terrorist.
But I am the opposite of a terrorist.

Spending this afternoon with Eavan Boland drinking cups of tea and wandering the ideas of exile, home place and womanhood in Cornwall Poetry Library. How I feel being exiled from Ulster, the language of my childhood and adolesence. How a war drove me out. How so many people are displaced by war.
