Catherine
You're all miserable skivers,
she leans back and sighs,
we thank the great divine,
for all the blessings he bestows,
whirr of the morphine driver,
like a canary in the glow,
singing in the yellow light,
she says I've had my time,
the manner of her being’s slight,
a quiet celebration alone,
as kids we could only try,
the Orphanage didn't do love,
moving with the tide,
a candle on its own,
her eyes blaze for Ireland,
we blow our noses,
when she passes by,
as a Schooner rolls and groans,
marking days that never die.
