LINEAGE&HERITAGE
Flew in to Dublin/hired a
car.
Drove around the
South.Winter
So i visited the ruins of
towers
Not those National Trust
pay admission Heritage Sites
More the broken Norman
Towers that both Yeats and Joyce occupied.
Joyce for one night-Yeats
for half a life in Connemarra.
Both were Museums-meant to
connote a "Poet's Life"
More poetry in the streets
of Dublin,and her pubs
More in the countryside
and @Blarney Castle
Coastlines and castles of
the terrible history
that forced so many to
flee.Bogs and admission prices.
Grave of Ossian on a
hilltop in Northern Ireland.
Does a poet have to pass
before acknowledgement ?
Voices in the landscape
sang in Gaelic-GO HOME!
There is no poetry in
going backwards.
