Pat's (C)hat featured on RTE's 40 Years Of Childrens TV that was shown a couple of years ago. About two minutes of footage. When I change PCs I'll try and upload it.

Question One: There is no giraffe mentioned in this poem. If there was, for what do you think it would be a metaphor?

Question Two: How do you think it possible for one of the protagonists to break the other’s bleedin’ face when it is clearly
not bleeding yet. Does it matter?

Question Three: How do you think that he thought he’d be able to do it in the first place? Do you think anybody gives a bollix?

Question Four: Comment on the poet’s use of less than three apostrophes. (optional).

Question Five: Write two hundred words on the way that the poet uses a table to symbolise that way that the brown paper bag
disintegrates when you lash loads of vinegar into it and chips land on your shoe.

Question Six: What would you rather be doing now?

Question Seven: Is her mother out?

Question Eight: Can we come and watch?

youre bang right there my friend.
pat refuses to include his poems in any school texts or anything with the word 'arts' in it.

 

[Franco]

Zany Tales is a great book. Still have it somewhere.

And the fact that I don't own a single one of his books epitomises everything bad. I can't believe I don't! He's the most important thing in town, like as long as Pat's still around, Dublin is going to be okay. But it's a crime that I don't buy all his books. I'm a stupid dum-dum head.

Next time I see him, though, I'm definitely going to buy some.

ALSO: Hi Niall!

ALSO: Hi Niall!

ALSO: Hope you doing good Jane?

Anyone know how to get in touch with the man himself?

What days does he sell his bukes on Westmoreland St?

Have you been drinking?

niallmc does. PM him.

My dad has loads of his books, they're so good.
I always mean to stop and buy one from him but I feel like I might cry or something if I do - there's something about Pat that makes me well up, he seems so fragile in a way.

 

[Corey]

Saw him in town last week. Pat's not lookin well at all.

 

[sweetoblivion]

I must buy a book off him next time I see him.

Saw him in town last week. Pat's not lookin well at all.

Can you recall what day?

 

[sweetoblivion]

I saw him last week too, would have been Thursday I'd say?

Thanks.

I have an assignment and I'm going to use one of his poems, I just wanted to see if he'd point me to one other than the one I've picked - knowing the purebred salesman he is, he'll recommend one in a book I don't have yet [grin]

 

[the departed]

yo, i dont think pat would be too into having his poetry used in assignments. he is totally against his poetry being used in education.

feel free to ask though. he may tell you to feck off.
he's out most days of the week between molly malone and westmoreland st.

It's not educational.
It's a mission from God.
