How wonderful, as always.....love the setting and the 2 candles behind. Great idea to read it and you have a rich calming voice. Thank you kindly and yes I am so busy job-hunting lately I am only seeing this now! Really enjoyed this. I find I can't take much politics after the Covid trauma. I am truly still traumatised. There is nothing like the old fashioned poet/seanchai.....

Now Gerry, hearing you reading your work aloud, has cemented in my awareness your true nature, that of the bard, reincarnated. Since my Irish history is more than rusty, having been born in America, were the bards also freedom fighters? If not, then you have one up on them. Om Shanti!

Excellent Gerry. Drinking sure is a mugs game. Sitting outside Tigh Coili having a cup of tea and having a smoke last Thursday at 11am I was surrounded by Americans, all of them drinking. This week I brought a flask of tea and sat down by the docks, away from the lunatics.
