Lugh’s Lesson

Posted on February 5, 2019 by Mabh Savage

I walk up to the gates

And I tell them

How much I have to offer

How much I have to give

But they don’t want to know

They’ve seen it all before

You don’t write better

Sing better

Fight better

Than any we’ve seen before

Ok, I say, the way

Through your closed-mindedness

Is clear

No fear, I’ll show

Instead of tell

I’ll write the words

That make you

Laugh, cry and sleep

I’ll sing the song

That brings the past

To life

I’ll fight the warriors you send

I’ll toss the blocks

I’ll break and bend

And mend

These bridges fast.

Lugh showed us well

Do, don’t tell.
