Thar na sìorraidheachd, thar a sneachda,
chì mi mo dhàin neo-dheachdte,
chì mi lorgan an spòg a’ breacadh
gile shuaimhneach an t-sneachda:
calg air bhoile, teanga fala,
gadhair chaola ’s madaidhean-allaidh…—Somhairle MacGill-Eain, “Coin is Madaidhean-allaidh” (“Dogs and Wolves”)
A poem for International Wolf Day 🐺

There is a specific tiredness that comes from being argued about. It is not the tiredness of work. It is the exhaustion of a body that has been asked to be evidence.
Set it down. Not forever. Just for a while.*Tha an talamh a' cumail cunntais* — the earth keeps the count.
What are you setting down today?

August is the month the year stops promising and starts delivering, and delivery is heavier than promise. The tomatoes come in faster than the counter can hold them. The goldenrod is up. The light leaves a few minutes earlier each evening, so slightly you register it in the shoulders before you register it in the sky.

Four days past Lughnasadh and the light goes a minute and a half earlier every night. Too small to notice. Too steady to argue with.
Tha an t-samhradh a' tionndadh — the summer is turning.

Tha tìm, am fiadh, an coille Hallaig…
( Time, the deer, is in the wood of Hallaig…)“In ‘Hallaig’, in this poem, MacLean, as a Gael, stands firmly at the centre of his world, and, consciously, close to the end of his world. As a poet, he shows us that the particular horizon and times that happen to encircle him, encircle us all.”
—Seamus Heaney3/8
