“I am a man upon the land,
I am a selkie in the sea,
And when I’m far and far frae land
My hame is in the Sule Skerry”

Robin Robertson reads At Roane Head - The Guardian
You’d know her house by the drawn blinds –
by the cormorants pitched on the boundary wall,
the black crosses of their wings hung out to dry…
—Robin Robertson, “At Roane Head”
in the London Review of Books, 14 August 2008
Today, 22 March, is International Seal Day 🦭

Jack Norisk 🦇"Captain of the Black Bones", my entry for the 20th challenge of @digitalpaintingschool "Sails of Black Bones"! :)
