Betrayed for thirty pieces 
Of silver
Mocked, spat upon 
Flogged and crucified, 
How Messiah suffered and died.

The name translated to english Grianan means sunny spot or sun temple
The land bows down inspirational the view 
seat of the high kings dating back to 1700 B.C
Overlooking Lough Swilly and Lough Foyle
Eogháin, after whom Inishowen is named

Stalin cared nothing for his people 
Mao Zedong was likewise 
Cruel and brutal tyrants 
Who slaughtered millions of their own people. 

And now let those who espouse the ideals 
Of communism, marxism, socialism and globalism
Learn the truth from the blood soaked landscape 
Of the twentieth...

To disorder 
I look at my reflection 
In the mirror 
And believe every word.

Outside 
The streets are thronged with people 
Chanting empty slogans 
Mindless minions 
Dancing to a globalist agenda...

Should time eradicate all my fears and doubts 
The painful memories of my troubled past 
The cruel and biting words from unfriendly mouths 
And grant inner peace and contentment at last, 
Should time with a kind and generous hand 
Grant fortune and favour among friends...

To murder its own children 
Is destined to destroy itself.

Gathering Leaves 
On an autumn day 
Bittersweet memories 
Of summer, 
Swept away.

Whenever I hear the heavens sing 
Or see the sun shining down 
Or behold any living thing 
That walks on this hallowed ground, 
Whenever I see the earth in spring 
Fertile and blooming with life 
Or hear the birds sweetly sing 
Their joyful song in...

Dublin city 
Along the quays 
Over the bridge 
Across the liffey 
North and South divide.

Fell in love 
Got married 
Had children 
Worked hard 
Grew old and retired 
To the countryside, 

      The simple life.

As always 
The tyrant 
Wants to silence and oppress
By whatever means, 
Even political correctness.

In the mountains 
There is silence 
  
         The peaceful contentment 
          Of a mind
          At one with...

Never in all the years 
Of the long dying day 
Will I falter before that cruel voice 
Or countenance the black despair 
That rises from the deep cesspool of fear 
Gorged on the churning cauldron 
Of malevolence and hate, 
Never in the bitter dying day...

The heart breaking expression 
Of grief,
The same 
In any language 
Colour or creed.
