Welcome to my portfolio. Here you’ll find a selection of my work. Explore my projects to learn more about what I do.
They think that they know but they don't know
They think that they see but they don't see
They think that they are right but they're not right
They think that they are educated but they're not educated
They try to convince you
They are sure that you need convincing
God love them
They do not know what they do
We follow each other
Into bars
Into churches
Into rivers
We follow each other
Looking for answers
Trying to escape
Subconsciously
We follow each other
Then we blame
We say it’s someone else's fault
We lost our way
When really it's very plain
We paddle our own canoes
Róisín Dubh Fireplace
I sat here in 1999 by this same fireplace
High on big ideas and low on sense
I dreamed of great things
I would be a hero
I would prove that I was somebody
I would show them
I showed them
It made no difference
Until I surrendered to the realisation
That I was not alone
I would never stand apart
And I really had nothing to prove
Shame
Cigarettes and alcohol camomile tea
Filter coffee and lesbian carrot cake
You rented a ground floor bedsit in Cork City
You took photos of me at Torc Waterfall
I still have them somewhere
We tried things that were new to me
We weren’t criminals anymore
You weren’t my type
But I liked you
You were good to me
We lost touch
I look for you on Facebook sometimes
I was ashamed of you
I was ashamed of myself
I was lucky to survive that
I might go down to Cork this summer
You had an English accent
I drank on the shame
I don’t feel ashamed today
Maybe I will go down for the Pride Parade…
Treasure
I found a great treasure buried in a field
I sold everything that belonged to me
I bought that field and the treasure it contained
Then I went out and gave it away
I gave it away
I gave it away
The treasure I found
Deep in the clay
On every street in every town
I gave it away
The treasure I found
They laughed at me
They said what a fool
He’s putting his trust in a two- legged stool
They laughed at me but I never dismayed
I got heaps more back than I gave away
I have no home
I have no kin
The fox has a hole
The lion has a den
I found a great treasure buried in a field
I sold everything and got all that I need
