Death of The Swan

Death of The Swan audio

Death of The Swan was written in the summer of 1980 between Amsterdam, where the second part takes place, and Paris, where the first part is located. It is an imagined scenario and, to the best of my knowledge, didn’t actually happen. It was first published in Revival Poetry Journal #9 (October 2008) and is taken from my first collection, The Parting (2013).
The recording was made on 24 June 2020.
