Just give me enough
and I won't ask for more
nor will will I regret
if enough is too little
or barely sufficient though
nearly almost would suffice
I suppose if all I could wish
for was enough to be sure
that the blitz on the Bryts
blew the capital to bits and
that The Tullamore Dews
were just foggy with hues
and the Abra with candle
had no Star or no bangle
and the eye seeing Dollar
had lost its triangle and
that the olde jingle jangle
was a kind fan-dangle on
a glass with a Harp that was
played out of tune.

This is a directive, rather than a
suggestion, that is because I'm a
failed member of write watchers.

Alcoholics Anonymous clearly
state that all members pick up a
new obsession after getting dry.

So, as I have compulsive creative
disorder I am unable to allocate
enough time to masticate metaphors.

Neither do I mince my words which
means that the consumers are forced
to regurgitate and therefore, ruminate.

Excessive indulgence is likely to cause
discomfort, so it is wise not to become
gluttonous by devouring all you can see.

It is a known fact that all addictions begin
in pain and end in pain, but be assured, I
never thought my poetry could upset you.

•Toponymic'k
Ryan O'Leary Nov 25
So, what is actually in the name?

Well, if one was doing the family

tree of a word and its hereditary

background, we would refer to

the department of etymology. It

is here we find its root often Latin

or Greek, but in the case of this

•title, it is Irish. BUT, the Oxford

dictionary removed the K after

The Good Friday Agreement so

as to nurture good relations with

with historical adversaries. It is

now officially Toponymic and it

means coming from a place that

is associated with the name. For

example Tullamore Dew is often

in error confused with Irish Mist

but when the English suffer from

foggy weather they always attribute

it to the Irish Cloud Factories, that is

because " Where west, each wind is

born, mischievous Gaels, with pots

of vapoured broth, disperse its brew

and laced with ancient potions concoct

a drape to cloak the Saxon horde " yes

we still employ Druid Chefs because no

matter what those British ******* do

they will never be able to stop the wind

that shakes the barley as long as they're

on the wrong side of the Emerald Isle.

My empathy heart bounces
when I see meet or hear the

History repeats itself as tides
currents and flows of time are
echoes that we cannot forget.

in 1847 a million left our land
to be scattered on four corners
of the globe (unable to return).

But a million of those who had
to stay died of famine starvation
induced by the British colonisers.

Ryan O'Leary Nov 24
.                       Nil aon Tintean
                                Mar do
                         Thinteain fein!

                        Indeed, because
                      home is where the
                 Hearth Harp & Heart is.

                  Everybody wishes to be
                 there, even wild Salmon.
              It was the yearning of Yeats.

             Home O’Sapiens is what we’re
          known as in the animal Kingdom
        of Walt Disney’s incredible journey.

       Let he who has not wished to be back
      in Ireland cast the first aspersion about
       homeless refugees and rough sleepers.

    Empathy is an emotional philanthrope and
the only cost to the altruists is compassion, even
  when beneficiaries are not consciously aware.



Ps.

The first 3 lines are Irish Gaelic meaning

There's no fireside
         like your
      own fireside.

The reference to Yeats
in 3rd verse is pertaining
to his death in France,
But he was exhumed and
brought back to Ireland
and buried in County Sligo.

Occasionally they get

Rock Bottom
Ryan O'Leary Nov 22
The set is where a driven
pile stops and no matter
how hard it is hit, it stays.

Alcoholics use the term to
describe their nadir, which
in lay terms, is snakes belly.

The lowest elevation one
descends to from abuse of
drink and drugs, the depths.

But some of us are born in
it and stay there for entire
lifetimes without escaping.

No amount of Dr. Bobbing
or Bill Wilson-ing makes an
single ounce of difference, 0.

Who you see here, what you
hear here when you leave here
let it stay here, means nothing.

I say that because Rock Bottom
is where you is and where you
had been ever before you drank.

In fact, but for the anaesthetic
of alcohol this den of a stygian
gloom would have killed me.

AA helpline to people like me,
is for broken fan belts, flat tyres
faulty ignition and engine failure.

But it only goes to show, that
those who "recover" as they say,
were on a totally different strata.

The earth shows

I assumed stars were
symbols of hope, and
the sky, a place that
was strobe lit by them.

When one fell close to
our homeland in Gaza,
nobody, even thought,
or attempted to catch it.

And yes, the rainy day

have our pockets empty,
than the linings burned.
