I was right yesterday - no sleep was had
Last night on that noisy crowded ferry
And at 6am, in the dark, I had
To drive out of Dublin. I got very
Lost in the city centre. The Liffey,
Custom House, Henry Street, all dark, empty
Felt like a cab driver plying his trade
But no customers there; far too early
Passed Dun Laoghaire, Bray, Wicklow, Arklow, the
South coast at Waterford (missed out Wexford)
Through Cork City, through Bandon and Bantry
Up Sheep’s Head Peninsula (icy road)
To the white cottage; they’re expecting me…
Got there by two, time enough to record!
Wed 23 December
