In Northern Ireland, helicopters are not usually used to promote poetry.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We simply have not kept in touch with poetry.
There is no language like the Irish for soothing and quieting.
My point is there's a hidden Scotland in anyone who speaks the Northern Ireland speech. It's a terrific complicating factor, not just in Northern Ireland, but Ireland generally.
I was brought up in the countryside in Ireland and would go bonkers if I couldn't escape the city. I like to wake and hear birds tweeting, not the low drone of traffic.
The thing is helicopters are different from airplanes An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or incompetent piloting, it will fly.
I've never read anything set in Belfast that doesn't involve the Troubles or something senseless over a flag.
However, poetry does not live solely in books or in school anthologies.
A rhyme doesn't make a song.
In Australia, not reading poetry is the national pastime.
The American public does not know poets exist.
