Rubble

By Ellen Moran

In Rubble, Ellen walks a psychological trail between village and city, exploring how it feels to move from one environment to the other. The cut stone of rural village buildings are seen in stark contrast to the rubble of cities covered in litter as aspects of modern counter-urbanisation are explored. The poet places herself within the swathe of migrants to the countryside who can work from home as a result of the pandemic but must be committed to using local services, supporting local businesses and playing an active part in the community.
