Burns V Kavanagh
If Robert Burns met Patrick Kavanagh
who would smile who would look away
across a field of barley or potatoes
kindred spirits or in each other's way?
The ploughmen poets would adjourn
to the local pub and order single malts
and after a few glasses had been taken
tell tall tales of sowing wild oats.
