A design I’ve been working on for a while. I think it’s done.
I’m very pleased to have my photo of Derek Dubery featured in The Chap magazine #86.
A terrific show organised by ArtsEska in Belfast tonight. I had a great view from the balcony at Robinson & Cleaver.
Mr Crow, I have been occupied with the thought,
As to how and what I ought
To write of you for some considerable time.
You are detestably difficult to place into rhyme.
There’s no symmetrics in your feathers
Or your white-rimmed eye,
Your croaks are akin to leather,
You are cowardly mean and sly.
But when Nature manufactured creatures,
Wise she thought of all the features.
Now if her realm should all be beauty,
Who then would master meaner duty
So when you cawed far back in time,
First struggled out of primeval slime,
Mother Nature paused and said:
From this moment I declare
You will fly and haunt the air
And help me desiccate the dead.
