Candlethirst
by Patrick StackCandlethirst audio
Candlethirst was written sometime between November 1982 and February 1983 during the year I spent living in Koindu, Sierra Leone. It is taken from my first poetry collection, The Parting (Amethyst Dragon, 2013).
This recording was made on 23 May 2020.
