The adjective for metal is metallic, but not for iron, which is ironic. Thank you.

Huge congratulations to Tara Bergin on winning the @ForwardPrizes for Best Single Poem – Written 2026.
‘The Fear’ by Tara Bergin was one of two published in Issue 52, Summer 2025 of @stingingfly magazine.
The judges said: ‘what was remarkable about 'The Fear' was its universality: it transmits across the generations and across experience, and that collective fear we all share about its legacy for those that follow. It's a simple poem and yet it does so much. It's not only timely; it's timeless.’
Tara says: ‘Many years ago I devised a poetry writing class called ‘Fear Poetry’. I got so interested in the whole idea I had to try it myself.’

UCC.
Tomorrow I'll be in UCC talking to Department of English, MA students. Engaging with students absolutely expands my mind.
Thanks Keri Andrews & Kerri Dillon. Always a delight.
And really, just to wander from the college gates through campus of UCC would do your heart good.
