| Notes | The additional noting material for these poems in this publication is instructive for understanding them: Poet’s Note: These poems that I submitted are a part of my experience as a volunteer in an immigrant detention centre in Northern Ireland. They were written in Italian and translated into English by the poet Maria McManus. The English language versions appear beneath the poems. – Viviana Fiorentino This short lyric sequence contains three parts, which describe the speaker's fear of the vastness of the sky and her desire to reach land, which will provide her with a home, a 'place to live'. |
