Windows Kiss the Shadows of the Passing Thirty Million

This dramatic poem evokes the collective struggle of the dispossessed and victimised to find a home and place of safety, and to bring about a fairer, better and more enlightened world. While the story of exile has had bitter meaning for Huguenots, landless peasants, gypsies and Romanies, Jews, Bosnians, Socialists, the unemployed, Armenians, the starving, Irish, Communists, Catholics and many other groups, it is tragically as relevant as ever today for those escaping conflict and famine in the Middle East and Africa. The poem was first performed as a multi-media, spoken word performance about human displacement, unemployment and migration in Bridport, Dorset, UK in October 2015.
