Hillsbourough Drive 2016: Chris Thackaberry

Another poem from the collection of Dublin Unionist Chris Thackaberry.

 

 

 

Hillsborough Drive 2016

 

Sarajevo

                 Where East met West -in epic force 

 

Sonic boom rattled my window

                             as I raddled my son to school

 

‘That’s a bomb’ – as I turn the door to work

                                           Titania onto Cregagh 

 

The splintered remains, untidy’s my road

                                     and dishevelled my mind    

                               

                    into a Serb like hate

 

‘Fenian Scum’ repeats in my head 

                                         as I drive East to West

 

My first patient is Teresa
