Political Poems: ‘Station Island’ by Seamus Heaney

[@MaryOmalley-hg9pc]

Marie de France besides her lays also has a piece on Station Island which I have never been able to find the text or if I did just couldn’t get through it. Laura Goff has n interesting. take on her with her novel Matrix but completely ignores MArie’s use of a curse to a woman may you be a mother of twins which would only could only come from a mother of twins herself.

It's Dunny not Donna in Donegal. Sorry, guys. Many English folk just aren't up to speed with Irish placename pronunciation. Even experts on Heaney! T'rone not Tigh-rone in Tyrone. A schwa in the second syllable of Omagh not a long A (unlike Armagh). Antrim is trochaic not iambic or spondaic. The Y in Ballymena and Ballymoney is a schwa. In Ballyclare and Ballycastle it is ee. Connaught or Connacht does not rhyme with nought.
