Hi Adam,
thank you so much for your feedback. I do have a bit of an advantage as I have the good fortune to work with asylum seekers and refugees and am constantly inspired by their tenacity and lust for life. Thanks again - it is a piece close to my heart.

I wish there is so much more to this poem so many lines you started with this fantastic jumping off point I wish you would've jumped And in the eye of the dead cow for a moment I thought it was winking back at me certain that I too would be dying in this night but I would not go quietly into the white ...I would instead sing in hope that old cow might hear me and
Like a newborn child come to dance with me again....

Really excellent Ian. It has a long view and a gentle warmth to it - an allegory of the death of a close one I should say. Highly affecting stuff. Very distinctively written.

A sense of frustration and isolation from the expected glories of creativity, is what I read here Stu. Beautifully and poignantly presented, a sort of rictus .

There is so much detail just in these few lines in which you say much. Wonderful stuff here Stu. It also appeals to my melancholic side of my nature.
I also love the sense that there is an inevitability portrayed here.
Fabulous
