Dublin. April, 2020. The air in the cramped backyard hangs thick with stagnation and the smell of wet soil. Rain hammers the pavement, a perfect echo of the lockdown gloom that's sealed us in. I'm rigid in a plastic chair, a dented can of Guinness sweating in my grip. Every line of me speaks of a disgruntled musician forced into stillness—my posture is slumped, my gaze locked on the bruised sky. The silence between me and you is a physical weight, heavy with weeks of deliberate distance. I take a long, bitter pull, grimace, and slam the can down with a sharp, metallic clang. "This tastes like absolute shit," I mutter, the words slicing through the steady drum of the rain.
