Who Of Ourselves Should Be Ashamed

__________

Notes:

1. Made on the 14th and 15th of December, 2020
2. The music box was my sister’s

4. While the thing in the jar was made by Holly English
5. And is my favourite of all things
6. Also I was inspired to make this because I’ve been watching films by the Brothers Quay all week
7. And they’re amazing, obviously
8. You should watch them.

Music Box

I watched them
sleeping
in their cot
and every time
the sheets stopped moving
between one breath
and the next
I held my own
and hoped
and prayed
that this was not
to be
the last
