Just got this lovely thing through the post- I’ve not bought a copy of @thealchemyspoon.bsky.social before but opening it to find two poems by @vanessalampert.bsky.social was already a treat. Looking forward to the rest.

RIP Michael Longley. I'd known him for over 40 years when he taught an Arvon with Paul Muldoon. I always said Paul supplied the genius, but Michael the magic: how else would a classicist write 'Ceasefire', an intervention into a vicious war admired by both sides? Ave atque vale.
