Once a coin in Tullamore
was to decide the final score
the tosser threw high
the evening came nigh
no quitters they called it a draw

Proposing pure penalties
Rambling rancorous reveals
Opining odd occasions
Pitching putrid penance
Heralding heinous happenings
Evoking erroneous events
Teaching terrific tautology
It’s time to stop
the killing by order
of the courts.
Time to stop
the injections
electrocutions
hanging people
if we still do that
in America.
Time to stop
pulling people
from the womb.
Innocents now die
every day by order
of the courts.
Donal Mahoney
Memories of days splashed with rue,
Misgivings accumulate
Penalties accrue
For when thine judgements of foolhardiness come due
Tis then that you realize that your days here are but few
After touching the bottom rock with the sole of your shoe
Only then
Can you ascend
And set your compass
To true
Form:
There we were
all lined up, the girls
dressed like little brides,
the boys in white shirts
and ties, hands joined
in a slow shuffle towards
the wholly incomprehensible.
At that age you believe in
anything you're told
though it was not belief
that was the problem
but the penalties
for not believing that
set a horror loose
to crush our little souls.
When England play semi finals they tend to draw,
losing on penalties to teams who score more,
someone will miss one of that we are sure,
repeating the fate of the England before,
The tale of the shoot out we've had to endure,
in extra time last night Harry Kane didn't score,
but the rebound he did and the nation did roar,
missing but winning, ironic galore
I often wonder,
If there is a Bank of Love
Where deposits are made
And withdrawals are taken
What would it consist of
In my minds eye
There would be no vault
No overdraft protection
No fees or strings or penalties
There would be no loan rejection
A place to go
If you should find
Love in short supply
To give or take when needed
A safe place standing by
432.
Prepare Us for Death
Oh Father God, author of our life and death
Be with us in sickness and in health
Do not abandon us even if we dare to forsake Thee
Show to us Your inexhaustible mercy
For we are limited, our time passes away
We are bound by Your laws, we have penalties to pay
Help us be clean in spirit before it leaves our body!
