Dónall Dempsey Poems

I was an object
moving at over 100mph

in the fast falling rain
...

Come friendly mist &
fall on Slough....forgetting now
John Betjamin's bombs.
...

Mingling amongst
guests

we telegraph
...

I used to be
in the Girl Guides

but I was thrown out
...

WITH CHILD

She was still just a
kid...having a kid. A child
...

'Oh...the wind is cold! '
she cries...mittened...blue fingered
then takes off her coat.
'I will give it to the wind
...

God is in
a dilemma.

Religion A
...

Dog runs off with chop.
I run after chop and dog.
Catch him & make him
give it back...all...slobbery!
...

'Yes! ' I thought
' I will remember...'

how to get
...

Ah, I see now!

You are having a row
with me
...
