TRAIN
iv.
Like Irish-Australian history
How I felt connected for the
first time
after that National Museum
exhibition
all those achievements set out
like pavers in a path
How I felt the heft of those who
have
walked this way before me
How I had to see the exhibition
write about it
then travel the skies there and
back again
Sit on this train ruminating
Feel closer than ever
to the rough side of it all
I love that last line - it works to bring it into focus beautifully.
ReplyDeleteThanx Lucy - I'm having to think just what I meant by it at that time :) :)
