Born and raised in Northern Ireland.
I studied English literature at the University of Glasgow. I now live and work in South Korea. I have had previous poems published in the Shot Glass Journal and the Fib Review.

Tell me the old old story

The blood runs thick off the cross,
Dark mixes with light
And becomes the shade
Of a burden releasing and thickening into the honey of a new Canaan
A land promised to all;
A land where the story writes and rewrites itself anew.
