Josephine Miles: Gypsy
 
The entire country is overrun with private property, the gypsy king said.
I don't know if this is true,
I believe in the gypsy kingship though.

The lost tribes of my own nation
Rove and rove.
In red and yellow rough and silent move.

I believe
The majesty pot mending, copper smith
On the hundred highways, nothing to do with.

And black eyes, black I never saw,
Searching out the pocket lines of cloth
The face lines and the furrows of belief.

It's a curious fact, Stephan, King, if you are made to doubt
Aegyptian vision on the Jersey shore.
Property's private as ever, ever.
 

Josephine Miles (1911-1985): Gypsy, from Local Measures, 1946

  1. Thanks, Tom. Great to see the archival shots from Mayo---my father went to school in Castlebar early in the last century. The Kerry ploughman made me think of an old favorite song, "The Kerry Recruit"---https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osSO_T3X6zw.

  2. Lovely, Terry.

    The Kerryman on whose birthday I was born and whose name I therefore got was indeed a "stropping lad," as the song has it -- streetcar driver at fourteen (as the family legend had it).
