Cork in Verse | Ana Spehar Interviews Mona Lynch

Mona Lynch graduated with an MA in Creative Writing in UCC in 2018. She is a poet, a short story writer and memoirist. She was invited to read at the opening of the Cork International Poetry festival in 2022. Her work has been published in the Examiner, Echo, Quarryman. Howl Magazine, Swerve, Voices from the Land, The World Transformed Anthology and currently has a poem on the Blarney walk as part of Patricia Looney’s Cork City Library Poetry in the Park project.She has been awarded grants by Munster Literature Society and The Arts Council.

Is there a common theme, style or structure you find yourself leaning to in your poems? Where do you seek inspiration from?

For the moment, the theme of my poems seems to be memoir related to where I grew up. My village, which I left to marry aged 21 in 1962, holds so many memories. Blarney is well known as a tourist destination, but there is, and always was, so much more to it. Once, the area of highest employment in Ireland with its woollen mills, paper mills and its famous Hydrotherapy unit. I like to write about the countryside there, my schooldays and home life. I like free verse, and if undecided about form I fall back on two-line verses, couplets.

I love the challenge of trying the different poetic forms as in Sonnets, villanelles etc. I am trying now to write a Flaneur, to wander around Cork city and write about its people and society.

Would you look on writing as a kind of spiritual practice?

I’m not sure if writing is a spiritual practice but I do find it calming. In 2016 I was seventy-five, my grandchildren grown up, when I decided to try something new, with no formal education past the age of sixteen, I was delighted to be accepted in UCC to do a master’s in creative writing. At that stage poetry was of no particular interest to me, but I had to choose it as a module in the course. There, I met poet Leanne O Sullivan and from the first class with Leanne I felt something fall into place in my life, like it was something I always needed but didn’t realise.

Do you have a favourite writing space? How often do you write?

My favourite writing space is in a spare bedroom, with my desk overlooking the garden. I write every day; I have no routine. I wish I was more at home with technology and could record as I drive or walk around. I find I do my best writing in my head when driving my car, and it’s gone when I get home. I have always loved light classical music and use music as a subject in my poems sometimes. Currently I am working on my first poetry collection, and I am being mentored by the wonderful poet Tom McCarthy with the help of an Arts Council grant. I belong to a few groups who meet on Zoom and keeping up with their prompts and challenges is also demanding.

What advice would you give to someone who just started writing?

Let nothing stop you, no one has your voice, your story, it needs to be heard. Find other people who write, join a group. Feedback is healthy and necessary for your work to develop. Read, read, and read again other poets, some you won’t like or understand, but there will be loads of people whose poems resonate with you, but keep your own voice and develop your skills. Get a list from the Irish Writers website of places to send your poems and send them off, get used to rejection, but the joy of having one accepted makes it all worthwhile.

What book would you recommend to our readers?

There are loads of books out there, but top of my list would be a book from Tech Yourself series Write Poetry and get it Published by Matthew Sweeney and John Hartley Williams and the other book is Writing Alone and with Others by Pat Schneider.

Reverberations

My heart knows the taste of the earth there,

the zing of rain on my face.

The fields, roads, bear my footprints.

While sand seeps through time, I need to go back,

battle with the traffic today,

where once only the local hackney reigned.

The bell rings out full of depth, a voice calls,

drawing the parish together,

a network of fields, lake, woods, even a castle.

Across from the church stands the factory gates, quiet now.

Once, its discordant hooter vied for attention with the bell.

It called women in wrap- around aprons,

skilled at warping and weaving.

men in overalls, rags dangling

from back pockets kept the machines singing.

They gathered again on Sundays answering the bell.

In polished shoes and white collars, they came.

while I knelt and watched my freckle faced brother

the altar boy, in his starched surplice and soutane

swinging the thurible, participating in a world

closed to us girls. We all took steps to freedom,

but chains of memory shackle us.

Daily Rituals

Every day my mother made a wheel of soda bread,

one foot round, deep crossed.

While it cooled on the windowsill,

she climbed the cobbles, to the sound of the Angelus bell

from the church on the hill,

to be enfolded in a cloak of incense,

lulled by the tinkling of the thurible.

She was playing Forty-Five in Christy’s Hotel

the night the ambulance took her.

She played a trump card and collapsed.

Later when I visited, she told me

she promised the Sacred Heart she would give up the fags

if he gave her another chance.

How do I make the soda bread, I asked?

A fist of brown, a fist of white

A pinch of soda, a pinch of salt

Sour milk to mix, she rhymed.

I mixed, I stirred,

Even the dog declined.

I never felt the weight of her fist, or the size of her pinch.
