Friday Poem – ‘And the Soul’ by Kim Moore

Silhouette of a wolf howling at the sky again a fiery sunset

This week’s Friday Poem is ‘And the Soul’ by Kim Moore from her first collection The Art of Falling. Kim will be joining us online on Thursday 1st February to read alongside Polly Atkin at First Thursday. Stock up for the event by treating yourself to 50% off any of her books between now and 31st January 2024 in our January Sale.

And the Soul And the soul, if she is to know herself, must look into the soul... – Plato And the soul, if she is to know herself must look into the soul and find what kind of beast is hiding. And if it be a horse, open up the gate and let it run. And if it be a rabbit give it sand dunes to disappear in. And if it be a swan, create a mirror image, give it water. And if it be a badger grow a sloping woodland in your heart. And if it be a tick, let the blood flow until it’s sated. And if it be a fish there must be a river and a mountain. And if it be a cat, find some people to ignore, but if it be a wolf, you’ll know from its restless way of moving, if it be a wolf, throw back your head and let it howl.
