Paratext Text i gcuimhne ar an taipéis draíochta a chuir Nuala Ní Fhlathúin le chéile i mBenfeita, Lúnasa 2012
Notes The speaker of the poem describes a tapestry by the Irish artist Nuala Ní Fhlathúin (from Lettermore). Praising the work of art, the speaker discusses the tapestry in terms of various themes and motifs: different aspects of mythology, including Greek and Irish myths (mermaids, Troy, fairies); Gráinne Mhaol of Irish history; the the denial of freedom to artists in China; and the killing of children in Palestine.
