MISE EIRE
I won't go back to it –
my nation displaced
into old dactyls
The title of this poem is a play on words.  “Mise Eire” is Irish Gaelic for “I am Ireland”. It is also a  homophone  for “misery” in English. Finally, it is a near-homophone for the “Miserere mei, Deus ” of the  51st Psalm , meaning “Have mercy upon me, O God”. The device of multiple meanings such as these is known as a  polyseme .
