Ripening šŸ“

ā€˜Dream Angus’, performed by Kat Healy and Thilo Pfander / Ā© Kat Healy 2023

List' to the curlew cryin', Faintly the echos dyin', Even the birdies and the beasties are sleepin', But my bonny bairn is weepin' weepin'

~ Dream Angus

In the end
It will not matter
That I was a woman. I am sure of it.
The body is a source. Nothing more.
There is a time for it. There is a certainty
About the way it seeks its own dissolution.
Consider rivers.
They are always en route to
Their own nothingness. From the first moment
They are going home. 

~ (from 'Anna Liffey', by Eavan Boland, 1991)

Ripening šŸ“

This month, I’m releasing a series of short extracts and reflections from my first poetry pamphlet, ā€˜Ripening’, due in 2024. The pamphlet will be accompanied by original artwork and songs.

As an indie artist, I’m self-publishing my pamphlet. If you haven’t already, please consider subscribing to support my work.

Thank you! Kat x
