Love Letter to Nora

My love for you allows me to pray to the
spirit of eternal beauty and tenderness
mirrored in your eyes or to fling you down
under me on that soft belly of yours and fuck
you up behind, like a hog riding a sow,
glorying in the very stink and sweat that rises
from your arse, glorying in the open shame
of your upturned dress and white girlish
drawers and in the confusion of your
flushed cheeks and tangled hair.

Droichead Séamus Seoighe


Künstlerroman Poïêtes

Crisscrossing the Liffey at Droichead na Leathphingine recrossing at Sráid Uí Chonaill than at Droichead Leamhcán then again again at Droichead Farmleigh, where the waters roil and curse, to the leaside quay of Droichead Ruairí Óg Ó Mórdha crisscrossing at Droichead Séamus Seoighe and Droichead Sheán Uí Chathasaigh onwards on to Santiago Calatrava Valls’, yet to be spanned, then for a Ha'penny a nick across Droichead an Nascbhóthair Thoir, arriving at Droichead Uí Chonaill crossing crossing recrossing the Unnameable to the maw of the great Amharclann na Mainistreach, whereupon upon the Contae Shligigh stage yon gaze and ogle the moveable levers that caulk and muscle the Seán Ó Cathasaigh troop, where nearby Aloysius Augustine Aloysius speaks in ligulas’ Künstlerroman Poïêtes standing admired in the raw earthy mud.
