For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

The very best performance poetry and writing from the following poets and writers Bernie o REILLY, Eamonn Lynskey John W. Sexton Karl Parkinson Ross HATTAWAY

All at Chapters Bookstore Parnell Street Dublin

John W Sexton was born, somewhere in Ireland, in 1958. He is variously
a poet, a rock singer, a short story writer, a children’s novelist, and a radio
playwright.

As a poet, John is the author of three collections, The Prince's Brief Career
(Cairn Mountain Press, 1995), Shadows Bloom / Scáthanna Faoi Bhláth,
a book of haiku with translations into Irish by Gabriel Rosenstock, and
Vortex (Doghouse, 2005) as well as having been a contributor to the
anthology ‘Poets For The Millennium’ (Bradshaw Books, 1999), in which he
has seven poems. His poetry has also been published extensively in literary
journals, both in Ireland and abroad.

He has also written 103 episodes of The Ivory Tower for RTÉ Radio. This
is a radio drama featuring the adventures of Johnny Coffin, the 12-year-old
drummer with a band called The Dead Crocodiles, and reluctant boyfriend
of Enya. The show has led to him writing three books so far based on the
various adventures of Johnny and Enya, The Johnny Coffin Diaries, Johnny
Coffin - School Dazed and The Enya Murphy Diaries, all published by O’Brien
Press. More are to follow.

Although the primary market for these books is young adults, they can
really be read and enjoyed by anyone. He is on the Arts Council’s Writers In
Schools Scheme, where he goes to various schools around Ireland to talk to
the students about writing. John’s work also regularly appears in Albedo 1,
Ireland’s award winning SF short story magazine.

Occasionally, John W Sexton becomes Sex W Johnston. Sex is the lead
singer, lyricist and one half of Sons of Shiva, the other half of whom is
punk god Hugh Cornwell, original frontman with The Stranglers. They have
released one CD so far called, simply enough, Sons of Shiva. This is available
in two slightly different formats, the earlier version of which was only available
from Hugh Cornwell’s website. It has since been re-released by Track
Records with an extra tenth track. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Karl Parkinson is a Dublin poet and performer whose work has been
published in journals and anthologies as well as in his own pamphlet. Karl
has performed in many different spoken word events, including the Electric
Picnic, and in 2008 he won the Most Entertaining Irish Act award at the
International Balcony TV Awards

Éamonn Lynskey has had poems published in many magazines. He was
nominated for the Sunday Tribune/Hennessy Literary Award for New Irish
Poetry in 2006 and one of his poems will feature on the 2009 OXFAM
calendar. His first collection Dispatches and Recollections was published in
1998 and he is currently working on his second And Suddenly the Sun Again
to be published in May 2010. Eamonn’s work is also featured in Census,
The First Seven Towers Anthology and Census, The second Seven Towers
Anthology. . Eamonn has also translated works of Italian poets Montale and

Valeri and written in Italian – he holds a Diploma in Italian Lauguage and
Culture from the Italian Institute, Dublin. His second collection, And Suddenly
the Sun Again has just been published by Seven Towers.

Ross Hattaway is a New Zealand born Irish poet. Ross' first collection The
Gentle Art of Rotting was published by Seven Towers in 2006 and he is
currently working on his second to be published in 2011. Ross' work has been
published all over the world and he has taken part in readings all over the
world. In 2008 he was the first Irish poet to be invited as a featured guest at
the International Poetry Spring Festival in Lithuania and his work has been
translated into and published in Lithuanian.. He also guested at the Live
Poet's Society Reading in Sydney in July 2008, and Manhattan’s East Village
Saturn Sessions in June 2009. His second collection Pretending to be Dead
will be published by Seven Towers in 2011.
