Death Fugue (Paul Celan)

Black milk of daybreak we drink it at sundown
we drink it at noon in the morning we drink it at night
we drink and we drink it
we dig a grave in the breezes there one lies unconfined
A man lives in the house he plays with the serpents he writes
he writes when dusk falls to Germany your golden hair
Margarete
he writes it and steps out of doors and the stars are flashing he
whistles his pack out
he whistles his Jews out in earth has them dig for a grave
he commands us strike up for the dance

This evening, from 6 to 7.20 PM, 15 Shell to Sea activists picketed the Westside Shell Service Station and we were much heartened by the unstinting support and warmth of the passing motorists, joggers and pedestrians - except for one pathetic creature shouting; "Get a job" and "Hippies" (true).

Galway Shell to Sea were/are most appreciative of Sinn Fein and Socialist Party Young Turks who swelled and graced our ranks. ... read full story / add a comment

Today, in the High Court, before Justice Ms Mary Laffoy, Shell EP Ireland made its contemptible attempt to drop its legal action against the beleaguered Rossport landowners. Last year it was the big stick of State and Big Oil intimidation that sought to cow the legitimate concerns of the Erris community in the form of Cloverhill gaol, today, it was the rotting carrot, the Trojan Horse, that was the cynical ploy of ... read full story / add a comment

In Harreveld youth prison in the Netherlands children are raped.
Inspection youthcare decided to investigate only after parents got this out in the news. They only decided that no new children should be put in this jail.
. It is not just children that did something wrong that are placed in jail in the Netherlands. BJZ a company that keeps children after they take them from their parents and that are paid by the government, also places children in jail because it is a cheap solution and their goal is to make as much monies out of children as possible. Judges in the Netherlands look away and allways decide in favour of bjz and children are thus used as tools to get monies. ... read full story / add a comment
