Seán Mac Falls (born 18 November 1957– 15 June 2023) was an Irish poet.
Belonging to no group or movement and operating outside of literary fashions, his brand of symbolist poetry can, at first reading, appear difficult.
His use of allusion, startling diction and subtle punning display submerged metaphor in his work.
His first collection of poems, 20 Poems (2001, ISBN 1-929812-05-1), won praise from Oxford University don John Carey, who compared the poet to W. B. Yeats and from Yale critic Harold Bloom.
His latest book of verse, is called Garden Theology.
