The Slightly Intimidating Side of Womens GAA in County Mayo
These two birds
that I used to know
They came to Dublin
from Maigh Eo
.
Red-tipped claws
and voices like saws
were as hard as nails
and could bend gaurd rails
.
They could fight
bears with bare hands
Dry rivers with thirst
Spit fire and worse
.
Would I call them womanly?
Yes, Amazonian probably
but feminine never,
though, to say it aloud
just wouldn’t be clever!
