The Blanket

The Unjust Imprisonment of Michael McKevitt

 

 




Charles J. Murnick • 27 May 2006

In a cell in Portlaoise there sits a man,
Mike McKevitt, unjustly imprisoned;
Condemned through chicanery to serve 20 years-
His accusers to Hell should be summoned.

The head of the PIRA?; Indeed, no one's sure;
But one thing is known, Rupert's lies won't endure,
Cuz his handlers have made sure he's no longer pure;
But poor Michael's still stuck there in prison.

'Twas 29 soulds Omagh gave up for dead,
While Brit lackeys and spooks they conspired;
But the truth will live on- it's now known and revealed,
That those liars will go through trhe fire.

Mike McKevitt is blameless-the courts nothing proved,
But their lies and deceit, they can stick in their groove;
When they go down to Hell,they'll be trampled by hooves
Of the Devil and all of his minions.
