The architect of my life

Poetry Nonfiction Visual Art Photography

Declan Gargan is an Irish poet and architect based in County Cavan. His work blends sharp cultural commentary with rhythmic narrative structures, bringing an architect’s eye for space, boundary, and structure to his verse. His writing ranges from the open, kinetic styling of contemporary sports and friendship to satirical critiques of public procurement rooted in quantum physics. Deeply invested in place and heritage, his poetry tracks the multi-generational defense of home, family resilience, and deeply personal acrostic memorials under his creative philosophy, TITA. His recent writing includes the poems "The Ground We Guard," "To Dream Your Dreams Another Day," "Thick as Two Plancks," and "The Broadmeadow Bend." He lives and writes in the heart of the Irish midlands.
