| Notes | As the title indicates, this poem focuses on refugees now living in Dublin. There are no specifics in the poem regarding this family's country of origin or history, rather there is a general commentary on the difficulty of leaving 'home' behind and starting again in a place where one stands out - 'too different to ever / blend with the crowd'. |
