I like to credit the inspiration for this poem to indigenous poet Joy Harjo. I had just finished reading her collection “A Map to the Next World” when I wrote this. I was wondering what an indigenous British version of her poetry might read like and this is what came.
This is so beautiful - a calm, warm hand held out to us all amid what feels like such a frenetic, exhausting and heartbreaking time for so many. Thank you!
