At Broadsheet we’re big fans of Kim,
But some folk aren’t as fond of him,
They’ll scheme and they’ll plot,
Until Kim has them shot,
But their chances of winning are slim.

An article by Denis O’Brien in today’s Irish Times
I read that our old Maltese mate,
Is currently feeling the hate,
He sees with a frown,
That the plebs won’t lie down,
Oh when will his nightmare abate?

While equality had us distracted,
A ruling of court was enacted,
You’ll just have to guess,
What’s behind this whole mess,
As today all the news is redacted.

Your right to give children a whack,
Is suddenly under attack,
From those who do good,
I wish that they would,
Cut hard working parents some slack.

That popular fellow Sepp Blatter,
Is embroiled in a delicate matter,
The yanks lifted six,
Of his top sidekicks,
And are sitting them down for a natter.

Fianna Fail leader Michael Martin and Senator Averil Power
In Fianna Fáil’s victory hour,
The atmosphere turned a bit sour,
They picked up a seat,
But it looks like defeat,
As the party is left without Power.

Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin
It seems that teenagers should not,
Go joy riding in a fast yacht,
It’ll all come a cropper,
When the Garda chopper,
Leaves the kids in a tight spot.

The Jeanie Johnston arrives in Dublin in 2002
This morning, before you go vote,
Spare a thought for this replica boat,
It looks nice and grand,
Down in the dockland,
But I can’t see how it stays afloat.

Easy And Clear
This one is easy. This one is clear
It’s not usually easy.
Most of the time, when you knock on the door,
And you clear your throat when they answer
You’re at the end of a long process.
You read too much and argued too much,
And it wasn’t easy or clear.
But you picked a side and followed the colours
And when they opened the door you smiled
As if it was easy and clear.
But here, now, this time, at last,
It is easy and it is clear.
Easier than voting for love, for equality.
Now we can vote for the right to look
At our friends in the eye, as equals.

Somedays we will all find life tough,
When your best doesn’t feel like enough,
But now we can go,
To a place owned by Moe,
And drown all our troubles in Duff.
