Ruins of Ballymacool
Those ruins stand, charred by fire
Not set by a rebels hand
Though many of it’s type out to the flame
By tenants ire
Anger pent, venting planned
No, that was not to blame.

Mammon, and what it inspires:
Is said to be how this home was burned!
Once imposing, always welcoming…
Mansion to rubble was turned.
