This print was a collaboration with Jo Raynsford and Supafrank Studio.
The text reads:
this being human is a guest house
every morning a new arrival
joy depression meanness
each comes
as an unexpected visitor
welcome and accept them all
even if they’re a crowd
of sorrows,who violently
sweep your house
empty of its furniture
treat each guest honorably
he may be making way
or some new delight
shame darkness malice
meet each at the door
laughing and invite them in
be grateful for whoever comes
each has been sent
as a guide from beyond
