Matthew O' Harris Ease A "FAKE" Irishman fair one day

Saint Patrick's Day, or
Feast of Saint Patrick
Lá Fhéile Pádraig
invoke even non Irish to proclaim
Éirinn go Brách
translated as "Ireland Forever."

Juiced tin he nuff tame afore
thee 2026 Saint Patrick's Day,
hens this faux written accent
more challenging and cryptic 
than chicken scratch
donned to sail hub berate won big todo
fur those peep pull o' Eire rush deuce cent)
aye pretend, and thence make oop
duff fallow wing vary minor event
harkening back e'er sins this generic gent,

Absolute zero degrees tolerance...

prevails to be united part and parcel
of (ups and downs)
constituting human rat race
swallowed up within the vast cosmos
as an infinitesimal speck
amidst the chaotic
activity of one uppity simian
broadcasting fabulous
notoriety the universe over,
where one measly mortal
congratulating himself as all time muckraker
since beginning of the space/time continuum
barely contemplating veritable insignificance,
nevertheless trumpets his daily rag exclusively
dedicated to him front to back as megalomaniacal

A BLURRED LIFE

A BLURRED LIFE

Some see their past sharply focused and clear
Whether as a waking memory or just a dream
But others will tend to try and let it fade away
As much that is remembered to be made grey
Most episodes to be forgotten, it would seem
Hoping that they could be made to disappear
