Long Talkative Poems

from island corner, big Antrim lad
  to Belfast city, a tiny pad
  shattered windows, tilted clocks

Going home from home is dangerous with a child.

Succulent tangerine...

Greeting happily and nervously
Walking closely together but unsure
Interested...

Decided to become another Revolutionary

By this being a revolting development.

they gather to chat in a corner
and whisper with fingers pointing,
