So long

And now a voice of my youth
Stands on a pedestal in the Pantheon of dead people
Oiche mhaith Mr Lenny

Confused

So I could never understand,
Women with violent men,
Vote like their husband says,
I could never understand,
A man in Ireland gets a woman pregnant,
She's away, baby away,
How many women voted,
Teach the daughters.
That's the only way.

Kind of hush

A hush has descended.
Not a soothing comforting relief from the hurly burly of daily life hush.
But a stunned silence kind of hush.
A what comes next hush.
A glad I haven't got children hush.
A there is no man made climate change hush.
A look out if you're different hush.
Maybe if we all go sleep like good boys and girls we'll wake up and find out it's all been a dream hush.
