I’m just back from a brilliant evening with Brian Bilston at the Seamus Heaney Homeplace
A masterclass in poetry and performance, it most certainly wasn’t a ‘damp squid’

I think this poem by Billy Collins is less about insulting someone and more about rejecting one set of values and embracing another
Rome represents military power & civilisation
Ireland represents solitude, nature, & contemplation
I’m with Billy on this one

This poem was inspired by Arthur Robert’s diaries, found in an attic in Glasgow in 2006, 24 years after he died in a care home
Arthur was one of thousands of black soldiers for fought for Britain in WW1 whose bravery was unacknowledged and unappreciated

Even in our absence we leave an impression on those we love. We exist in each others hearts as memories, as shadows
Here the speaker does not demand remembrance but knows it will come as sure as thunder storms come in summer
This must have been quite a relationship!

Today when we remember a different bomber this unsettling ironic poem by Collette Bryce
Bomber as an artist & the bomb as a carefully crafted piece of art is deeply disturbing
The aftermath spotlit for eternity
It used to be a morning routine to check for bombs under cars

I regret not making the most of school opportunities to learn languages
Later I went to Spanish night classes (I had fallen for a Colombian girl), with little success
This is about the courage to carelessly try new things, if we want to learn, love, or connect with others

Endings by Derek Walcott | Poems Rethabile Likes
Derek Walcott's 'Endings' — a quiet meditation on how things fail and fade rather than explode, leaving only the silence around Beethoven's head.
