Randomosity: Poem: Billy
http://annoying-randomosity.blogspot.com/2012/09/poem-billy.html
Wednesday, September 19, 2012. It was not that kind of loss. Not like those gone before who left me,. Breathless and broken in my grief. Someone took me to one side and whispered it. You had succumbed at last to the dying,. That everyone knew was coming. Quietly sad, I thought about about. Laughing with you while we smoked outside. Snatches of your life told to me in illicit puffing. This shared habit having us hide out back in the rain. You reminded me of my grandad,. Of an older Ireland and men. I am t...

Randomosity: Suicide Awareness Day
http://annoying-randomosity.blogspot.com/2012/09/suicide-awareness-day.html
Sunday, September 9, 2012. Tomorrow, 10 September, is national suicide awareness day and I'd like to talk about losing my friend to suicide. As the days passed the story became more confused. We discovered that she had passed away at home, and that she had died on New Years Eve. Even then, knowing her as we did we never imagined that she had taken her own life. She had seemed so happy, when we heard what had actually happened the shock was immense. I am not angry now, our anger in that moment can be unde...

Randomosity: Poem: Baile Atha Cliath
http://annoying-randomosity.blogspot.com/2012/06/poem-baile-atha-cliath.html
Wednesday, June 27, 2012. Poem: Baile Atha Cliath. It was the marching. Heavy boots thumping through. What was once my city,. But a lot has changed here. Since the last march. Sing ‘rare ole times’. And lighters five for fifty. 8216;till your throat is raw,. It still won’t come back. And be our town again. They thought hatred was orange. But it was only a way to mourn. What the tiger consumed. To bring us here. Where we should not be. It reminded us of what we lost. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Randomosity: Poem: An Irish Story
http://annoying-randomosity.blogspot.com/2012/05/poem-irish-story.html
Wednesday, May 9, 2012. Poem: An Irish Story. This is not a sad story,. This is something else,. A small voice saying she is worth more but another going,. 8216;ah go on, who do you think you are anyway? Its Fr Ryan, and her Da and one particularly cruel teacher. Who used to take the ruler to her with no provocation. She is adept at pretending,. The kids sitting outside the pub on Sundays. And calling that an outing. She loves them practically,. Clean knickers and (mostly) full bellies,. Dragging them up,.

Randomosity: Poem: Mont Saint-Michel
http://annoying-randomosity.blogspot.com/2012/08/poem-mont-saint-michel_7.html
Tuesday, August 7, 2012. I n the brochure they promised a spiritual experience,. Doubtful but I climbed the steps, scoffed at tacky shops,. Complained my legs hurt, but liked the shape of it. The imposing majesty of buildings growing from the rock. I wandered the maze of rooms with the crowds,. Blinked at the impossible beauty of human endeavor,. That runs in a wheel to lift supplies to make monument. To the story of a dragon slaying angel. I wandered the cloisters and for one moment was alone. Sense Abo...

Randomosity: Poem: An Ordinary Day
http://annoying-randomosity.blogspot.com/2012/07/poem-ordinary-day.html
Saturday, July 7, 2012. Poem: An Ordinary Day. How is it that it was just an ordinary day? I sat on the couch and drank coffee. Reading one of the Brontes, again. For breakfast I had slightly burnt toast. That left crumbs all over the floor,. Showered and dressed and went outside. To sit in the sun with more coffee and books. A precious day off, a day with no urgency. Leaving me relaxed and calm and contented. I tipped my head back, closed my eyes. And basked in the rare bliss of Irish sunshine. I am the...
