I enjoyed episode 123 of @LightlyWords which features @VKennefick's poem Hunger Strikes.
It's also pretty apt for #NoMeatMay.

"A hard task, taking the weight
Of those that have left before us.
A hard thing to be facing into
The space in the ground which is ours."
Indeed so. Kerry Hardie's wonderful work @BloodaxeBooks @UCDPoetry @Aosdana @KKArtsOffice

This poem is so beautiful. It's about language and its gaps, and so much more.
how starlings sound down the chimney
there should be a word for that
