One Hundred Men

Paul Conneally Little Onion Haiku Haibun

We take my mum and dad, both in their eighties, to Liverpool for a couple of days. My mum has wanted to see Anthony Gormley's 'Another Place' for a long time. A cold, windy and wild day at Crosby beach. Together we watch the tide go out, slowly revealing one hundred metal statues, casts of Gormley himself, naked, looking out to sea.

blowing its horn
the ferry heads west
mating gulls

Little Onion



Little Onion is the haiku name of Paul Conneally

Sweetheart



sweetheart
don't wander
off the path

From Walk The Line - Pavement Publication by Maurice Maguire and Little Onion (Paul Conneally).

Maguire and Conneally transfer haiku like poems created by members of the Kings Norton community in Birmingham during a walk with them through the Three Estates following the path of an underground canal tunnel, on to the pavements and surfaces in the area. They attempt to register the estate with the British Library as a book but are turned down. They contend that it is a book and can be read like any other published book.
