One of the two opening epigraphs to this collection is from Czeslaw Milosz ‘Death walked towards me, holding an empty paper-bag’ Their use in this collection matters and impacts, as It should be obvious, but I stress I am not dissing the metaphors. Have their genuine care and concern usurped by a universally empty emotion expressed through the metaphor ‘I stumbled over a man in a pool of blood. In this constant context, The Unmoving by Maria Stadnicka probably doesn’t seek to move us – being realistic – but is so much more than reportage as its purposeful metaphors convey, And in this one familiar, lame excuse we sense the uselessness of criticism of those atrocities carried out on one another in our world.Īs the UN Rohingya genocide report is just released, one wonders how this reveals anything in addition to what the whole world has already ‘witnessed’ at the actual time of its happening shown on our TVs: burning homes in the villages the orderly horror of the escaping refugees.

When I from black, and he from white cloud free, And round the tent of God like lambs we joy, Thus did my mother say, and kissed me, And thus I say to little English boy. ‘For, when our souls have learned the heat to bear, The cloud will vanish, we shall hear His voice, Saying, “Come out from the grove, my love and care, And round my golden tent like lambs rejoice.”‘ ‘And we are put on earth a little space, That we may learn to bear the beams of love And these black bodies and this sunburnt face Are but a cloud, and like a shady grove. ‘Look on the rising sun: there God does live, And gives His light, and gives His heat away, And flowers and trees and beasts and men receive Comfort in morning, joy in the noonday.
