Poet by Patrick Kavanagh
Performed by
Patrick KavanaghPoet Annotated
Winter encloses me.
I am fenced,
The light, the laugh the dance
Against.
I am like a monk
In a grey cell
Copying out my soul's
Queer miracle.
What goes on out there
In the light
Is less than a blue-bottle's flirtation.
Yet spite!
I would be a blue-bottle
Or a house-fly
And let the monk, the task,
In darkness lie.
