For it takes five years to imbibe the vast quantity of sheer mythinc wind to get to the plain undertstanding of what Cuhullain and finn McCool were up top when they bothe speak of poetry being found in "the music of what happens," it really is that simple, a voluminous myth makes for a compactable poetic, the string and thread of Amergin to pull behind his mask of owning langauge naming rite and a lingo happening music itself was conversation, craic a notion only natives know, so whizz on and please can you tell me how to sell my verse and poetry here please.

any information on this would be great
thank you
grizz

Well the poem doesn't ring any bells. I've spent the last half hour searching and can't find anything like it :(
As for a ban on drinking, many societies have passed this legislation on different days making it illegal to drink on labor day (or May day), Easter and other holidays. Can you be more specific about when/where about the ban?
