No Coward Soul Is Mine
O God of heaven!
⁠Lord of Elbe, on Elbe hill
Cold, clear, and blue the morning heaven
Tell me, tell me, smiling child
High waving heather 'neath stormy blasts bending
The night of storms has past
I saw thee, child, one summer day
The battle had passed from the height
Alone I sat; the summer day
The night is darkening round me
I'll come when thou art saddest
I would have touched the heavenly key
Now trust a heart that trusts in you
Sleep brings no joy to me
Strong I stand, though I have borne
O Mother! I am not regretting
Awake, awake! how loud the stormy morning
O wander not so far away!
Why do I hate that lone green dell?
Gleneden's Dream
It's over now; I've known it all
⁠This shall be thy lullaby
'Twas one of those dark, cloudy days
Douglas Ride
⁠What rider up Gobeloin's glen
⁠Geraldine, the moon is shining
Where were ye all? and where wert thou? 
Light up thy halls! 'Tis closing day
O dream, where art thou now? 
How still, how happy! These are words 
The night was dark, yet winter breathed
The Absent One…
To the Bluebell
The busy day has hurried by
And now the house dog stretched once more
Come hither, child; who gifted thee…

    Experience the raw and unfiltered journey of Imé Corkery as she fearlessly confronts the harsh realities of a rare and agonizing chronic illness in her breathtaking debut collection, Persephone's Pancreas. In this remarkable memoir of creative nonfiction, Imé takes you on an unforgettable odyssey that traverses the chasm between illness and earthly delights. From Netflix binges to the warmth of oxytocin, and from the intimacy of hospital date nights to the touch of the divine, this is a story that will capture your heart and soul. Imé Corkery's brave narrative not only explores the trials and tribulations of living with Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction (SOD), a rare and excruciating chronic illness, but also delves deep into the essence of love, both human and mythological. As you embark on this medical journey alongside our resilient heroine, you'll witness the escalating trials, the strengthening of drugs, and the profound descent into a world of myth. Persephone's Pancreas is a profound exploration of love, pain, and the intricate dance between the two. If you've ever experienced the rawness of human emotions, this poetic masterpiece is a must-read, offering solace and inspiration to all who seek the light in the darkest of times. 
    Harrowing, sharp-witted, tender, raw and necessary, this is an indelible account from a poet with the sheer nerve to keep testifying, even when ‘pain is at its zenith.’ Persephone’s Pancreas is a collection from a writer who deserves the title heroine. - Tracey Slaughter  
    Persephone's Pancreas draws us skin to skin with chronic pain...sensory detail, myth and the everyday, to find the things needed to survive the liminal and lost zones of a long ‘sick girl summer.’- Aimee-Jane Anderson-O’Connor

    The plot revolves around four characters: Othello, a Moor general in the Venetian army, his wife, Desdemona, his lieutenant, Cassio, and his most trusted advisor Iago. Because of its diverse subject, namely love, jealousy, racism and betrayal, Othello remains relevant and valid even today.

    Robert Browning’s popular poems The Pied Piper of Hamelin and How They Brought the Good News are often anthologised, but it is in his dramatic lyrics such as My Last Duchess and the chilling Porphyria’s Lover that his poetic genius shines. Browning, with his unusual use of language, can be a challenging poet, but one who is always rewarding. This selection shows the many imaginative facets of this often neglected Victorian poet.

    The poet Katherine Philips was called "The Matchless Orinda" in her day and was well known for her works, both personal and political. She was a staunch Royalist (a supporter of Charles I and his son during the English Civil Wars) and wrote poetic defenses of the monarchy. She was also part of a literary coterie, in which she and her friends had "code names." Philips herself was "Orinda," her husband "Antenor," and her friend Anne Owen "Lucasia." She is perhaps best known today for her passionate poems celebrating female friendship. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett)
