Hadrian's Wall, Memory of King Arthur
Traces Of The Past
Long barrows
of memory
mark my own life meadows:
axes,
flints, and roast lamb
within a
long hall of the dead…
and the
abbey is forgotten
Benedictine
founded in the late 12 Cee
Everything
is now untouched,
where Arthur
once held sway,
and
Angesalus was his man,
within the
long hall of the dead…
outer
precincts of the church
and
cruciform parch marks make me memorious!

notes
late 12 Cee = late 12th century, written "late 12th C."
Angesalus = Lancelot
Goodbye to an ancient life past, which soon will be only memorous to me through the "parch" marks in my
long-term m.
