performance
amphitheatres are carved from
bones and stagger into stone
have traps in their floors
troughs to drain blood
bars protect the watchers
from the creatures who
when they are attacked
leave no more marks
than the rain drunk
by growing grass
Alice Hiller is a London-based poet, activist and writer. Her blog interviews poets about "saying the difficult thing". Responding to her own experience of childhood sexual abuse, her current work centres around trauma and creative resistance. She runs poems along channels of beauty and play and experiments with the expressive powers of silence.
