Whatever the barrow held

Once, has been taken away:

A hollow of nettles and dock

Lies at the centre, filled

With rain from a sky so grey

It reflects nothing at all.

I poke in the crumbled rock

For something they left behind

But after that funeral

There is nothing at all to find.  Anthony Thwaite, The Owl in the Tree

 

 

April 1987: for three days police and Republicans clashed on the streets of Belfast over an IRA funeral.  But the battle lines weren’t as clear as they seemed.  Not everyone working for the security forces was in uniform.  The Troubles: A Secret History IV, BBC 2019
