Details
She carried it back on the ferry
in Safeway bags. Convincing Customs
the longer girders were for catching
butterflies, she hid the WD40

Stealing the Eiffel Tower
Jane Kirwan grew up in Northampton but spent every summer in Ireland. She has worked as a dentist in Lagos and London and now lives in Prague. Her poems investigate the barriers that seperate mothers and daughters, women and men, Irish and English, and pick at the emotional locks that keep most of us in exile.
