#newyears #haiku by Seamus Heaney
Dangerous pavements
But this year I face the ice
With my father’s stick
Dangerous pavements
But this year I face the ice
With my father’s stick
Comments
I studied constellations
and forgot myself.
Unpublished haiku by Seamus Heaney, retrieved from a wastebin after an appearance at a poetry festival in Malmö c. 1989.
