Archival: Seamus Heaney reads and discusses his poems 

Real down-to-earth approach to poetry with lucid and life-like description of events in detail. Wish you the very best in the other world, Mr. Seamus and may God bless your soul.

A real poet, isn't he? Amazing stuff.

(without discussions) "Digging" 0:41 "Follower" 4:03 "Whatever You Say, Say Nothing" 8:31 "Oysters" 14:00 "The Guttural Muse" 17:06 (cut short)

There once was a poet named William Blake, He made me a huge battenburg cake It stuck firm in my throat, Before turning into a slithering stoat Befriending Blake was a terrible mistake

Take the phone off the hook!!!

Whatever you say, say nothing in Heaney's own words: 5:32, until the phone rings

We need to the potato eaters The remnant of Cromwel's Holachaust We need to learn from them Who struggled against the children of the dragon spawn The children of the woman stayed There in the sod they lived and prayed.

Howl at the troubles, that’s all you can do
