Patrick Kavanagh - Epic
Work rating: Medium

	I have lived in important places, times
	When great events were decided, who owned
	That half a rood of rock, a no-man`s land
	Surrounded by our pitchfork-armed claims.
	I heard the Duffys shouting "Damn your soul!"
	And old McCabe stripped to the waist, seen
	Step the plot defying blue cast-steel -
	"Here is the march along these iron stones."
	That was the year of the Munich bother. Which
	Was more important? I inclined
	To lose my faith in Ballyrush and Gortin
	Till Homer`s ghost came whispering to my mind.
	He said: I made the Iliad from such
	A local row. Gods make their own importance.
