Water + Sunlight = Green

For me, it's either seaside, or river running through a forrest, that's the scenery I need for real sense of 'detox'.

Recent excursion into one of my favourite areas of the Wicklow Mountains inspired me to experiment with making a video poem.

Pause

Some moments, so nourishing

One feels

GIDDY

Then melts

into longing for

...pause.

Sunlight and sound of water

And enough green

to settle the soul.

Stop!

cry the rocks.

Wait!

shout the fallen branches.

Peace,

whispers the still air.

My body responds

yearning to banish

the vise-grip anxiety

stalking the back of my throat.

I must

weep

shout

laugh!

First I must

pause.
