Dónall Dempsey Poems

I have known
only beautiful men

until...you.
...

Frightening Fear

un-saddening the Sadness
& its silences
...

He took the hardest brush
(she had forgotten to soak it in turps)

ran it along
...

Succulent chicken
roasting on the barbeque
is turned as we turn
and tan ourselves golden brown.
...

Vera Czermck
crazy Czech housewife

distraught
...

Pigeon poos
upon my poem

lying on the grass
...

The torn fingernail
screams.

She carries
...

I let the dead
borrow my eyes

so that they can see
...

First you rush
wildly ever more wildy up

until with a fierce frenzy
...

Light & shadow
arranged to meet

in the cathedral
...
