in shadowy days - for the birthday of miss margaret smith on St. Patty's day!!!

in shadowy days

in shadowy days

in shadowy days
irish poets sang stories
songs of witness and rememberance

about a past that never happened

but they wished for it so mightily
that they forgot themselves
afterwards
lying
on safe glorious green sod

spent after they had stolen
golden moments of syllables
from faraway stars...
