Writing Irish

You've heard of the Fighting Irish. But what about the Writing Irish? This group is for Wild Geese members who like to read, write, talk about writing, or er, write about writing. Also a place to discuss writers from Ireland or the Diaspora.

    Go n-éirí an bother libh

    May the road rise to meet ye

    Ragdoll babies hang from empty breasts

    Folk too ill to travel

    administer blessings from dugout homes

    Go n- éirí an bother libh

    May the road rise to meet ye

    Bare feet ooze mud between toes

    The cardboard shod claim top bunks

    on arrival at their coffin ship.
