I gave it a lot of thought
before my 1st attempt to
make a picture of a 1,000
words, but I came up with
the solution albeit it being
a bland colourless even a
featureless one, but I did it.

I assembled jigsaw puzzle
of as many pieces & when
completed I reversed the
image and proceeded to
write the same four letter
word on the back of each
and every one [in charcoal]

When it was finished, I then
set about its destruction, I
piled it up in a mound for all
to see, a 1,000 pieces of Gaza.
Because there are only a very
minute amount of free thinkers
in the world, those who differ
are generally very isolated and
why it is that great spirits have
always found violent opposition
from those of mediocre minds.

Michael Cunningham said

Ryan O’Leary is the waiter

Bien venue, voila monsieur,

Iron mesh, netting shoals

Steel beams, corrugated

Crushed carcasses of the

Aluminium zimmer frames
wheelless chairs and crutches

Broken buckets forged rims
of burnt out donkey carts

Bicycles barrows bent street
lamp standards copper piping

But manhole covers still shield

At last there is hope
For a Disneyland Derby

And we’ve got Vlad

He’s one hell of a lad
Leaving Ukraine in bits

There’s a net in yahoo
And no its not for fish
He plays a didgeridoo

Midst of Din
There is nowhere quieter

It’s a self medication of an

Behan wrote his best works

he famously confessed, I’m a

Nothing better than the black

The earth is a living organism

The earth also show up those

Did it ever occur to you to ask
why did God’s “chosen people”
end as they did in a Holocaust.

Newton’s third law is of action
reaction, cause and effect, or
the more modern term, karma.

I’ve no idea what Palestinians
done to deserve a Genocide
or indeed Ireland The Famine.

But strikes me as rather odd
that after the inaction of God
Jews are not devout atheists!

But they should have known
that he’d rat on them, 2,000
years ago he did it to Jesus.

realise that z in Zionism is

And why I go in churches

I can charge my EcoFlow
I can boil the electric kettle
I can cook my toasties
I can replenish my candles
I can find a pair of gloves
I can find an umbrella
I can rob the donation box
I can borrow the Biro’s
I can fill my Bidon
I can charge my toothbrush
I can charge my shaver
I can do stations of the +
while all of that is happening
but don’t. I sit in a confessional
box and I give myself three Hail

for being such a thieving *******,
though I never bother to say them.


Ps

I forgot, I can get Holy Water

Angelus, not from Anvil.

Jewellery has nothing to

Notion of Nation
Considering, that we all
came from somewhere,
here, was just a nowhere,
the same, as everywhere.

We are all born without a
language, or even a name,
we are initially herbivores,
but we become carnivores.

We were all secular but we
were induced, seduced, to
become believers, but not
just in a God, of everything !

A notion of nation, is what
makes us controllable, it is
the divide and rule system,
they want us to segregate.

A unified world, without this
mechanism is unmanageable,
because enemies, be they real
or imagined, are what chain us.

Poem 4 Migrants

~~~~~|-|O M E~~~~~~

   When life gets difficult
   When you are a misfit
   When you feel rejected
   When there is no hope.

   When you are different
   When you’re ostracised
When you’re a black sheep
When you’re overwhelmed.

When you absconded the
crossbar was under water,
but since, they moved the
goalpost, we must all do it !

Not everyone gets to leave
& going back is impossible.

Understanding Migrants

In all the time of my self
imposed expatriation no
matter how bad things in
Ireland were at the time
of my departure I could
never justify nor forgive
myself for abandoning a
country that nurtured &
schooled me. There was
constant gnawing of my
soul and sure it t’wasn’t
easy for me either to go
and leave a woman who
saved me, from myself,
but had no desire to be
anywhere but N.Zealand.
It’s when I think torment
I realise that everyone is
like me, we all want to be
at home especially those
of us misfortune enough
not to speak our native
tongue, that is double a
blow not to know where
we are spiritually and it
is this experience which
gives me empathy and
compassion for refugees.
There is no such thing as
an economic migrant, we
Irish had great economic
opportunities abroad but
no matter, some of us are
like the salmon, we will go
through hell to be home
even at the expense of a
lifetime relationship, just
as I have forced my wish
on a woman who has gone
through Limbo to live in a
Purgatory of my making.

Lies

Without lies the world would
be in a very sad state indeed

The bi- product of untruths
are a necessity for survival

Purveyors of omission are
are masters of deception

Illusion, suggestion, decoy,
camouflage are natures way

Seducing by the subliminal is
how the rose tricks the bees

The cuckoo lays its egg in the
nest of a bird with similar size

Nobody ever takes notice of
zebra’s crossing a busy street

Lies achieve what truth fails
to deliver, secrets are sacred

Sinners never confess truths
Catholicism is based on lies.

No yarn has ever been spun of
wool pulled over sheep’s eyes.
