He fights to keep things basic to re-mind himself of the simple wisdom of Finn MacCool Ireland's mythic national hero that the best music in the world is the music of what happens In his Elegy dedicated to Lowell Heaney reminded himself The way we are living Timorous or Bold Will have been our Life So that is where Noli Timere comes from Never Fear

How did I end up like this? Seamus Heaney – Exposure0 annotations EmbedShow text activity How do I create annotations? It is December in Wicklow: Alders dripping, birches Inheriting the last light, The ash tree cold to look at. A comet that was lost Should be visible at sunset, Those million tons of light Like a glimmer of haws and rose-hips, And I sometimes see a falling star. If I could come on meteorite! Instead I walk through damp leaves, Husks, the spent flukes of autumn, Imagining a hero On some muddy compound, His gift like a slingstone Whirled for the desperate. How did I end up like this? I often think of my friends' Beautiful prismatic counselling And the anvil brains of some who hate me As I sit weighing and weighing My responsible tristia. For what? For the ear? For the people? For what is said behind-backs? Rain comes down through the alders, Its low conductive voices Mutter about let-downs and erosions And yet each drop recalls The diamond absolutes. I am neither internee nor informer; An inner émigré, grown long-haired And thoughtful; a wood-kerne Escaped from the massacre, Taking protective colouring From bole and bark, feeling Every wind that blows; Who, blowing up these sparks For their meagre heat, have missed The once-in-a-lifetime portent, The comet's pulsing rose.

I love these scenarios being kicked around here Lots of knowledgeable creative thinking From what I see There were no shots ever fired From the TSBD And no need for conspirators to hang around Except to keep an eye on the movements Of Prayer Man To see how they could pin another murder On him. But seemingly everyone here agrees He was involved in a conspiracy To frame himself. Someone is missing something....
