My poem
‘Funeral Games’ has found its place in Southword 41 amongst poems,
essays and fiction by 41 other writers. It’s a little like viewing work at an
exhibition — reading a piece and then moving the
eye across the room to read a neighbouring work. Just before I got to mine, I
read the touching tribute to Kevin Griffin by Graham Allen. There is nothing
like lifting up a book and turning the page to read. Southword 41 is available for purchase through the Munster
Literature Centre in Cork. Thanks to Patrick Cotter, Poetry Editor, Billy
O’Callaghan, Fiction Editor and James O’Leary, Production.
