My Irish accent was so bad it perforated UIster
I asked for Chicken Kerry not a Dead Duck
Do we really need Cork with everything?
I have Celtic feet not sweltering heat
I said,Donegal, not, don’t call
I said Castlebar not how far
I want a trim to my hair,Antrim I spy
I said Dublin, not “love in”
I said we went to Howth not I swore an oath.
I said Nelson’s column not “hell is coming”
Where is County Teeth and why not Meath?
I’m an atheist now because I wanted relief from belief.
On the other hand the existence of God and several levels of angels did give a certain richness to the poetic world
Who would think now that sparrows chirruping were the souls of the dead?
