A Quatrain For Miley Poem by David J McDonagh

A Quatrain For Miley



Holy God! Poor Miley's passing
Shocked the nation when it came.
How ironic too that Mick thought
Holy God was just a sham.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I wrote this shortly after the death of the Irish actor Mick Lally. Mick was best known for playing the part of Miley in the TV dramas Bracken and Glenroe. Miley's catchphrase was 'Holy God! '. However Lally himself was an atheist who regarded religion as 'codology'.

I've never seen the drama but thought your summary was great!
