Geese crowd the Wash, silver flats
full of their clamouring. Shadows ripple
over them, rows of crosses, another,
another.

Twenty-five years a foot-soldier,
pensioned to this high scrape
of heather and bracken.

Build stone walls
against the slow march of hills.

Pace out the acreage:
Nethergate, Uppergate, Knoll.

Out of the city is a moon world, blue and white,
frost like gas on the fields and roads.
The land slips east into night, fen ditches
glowing like pig-iron.

Aiming for a ‘stocktake’ of sorts, and a shareable resource, we’ve created a free, downloadable PDF: a selection of fourteen poems (and one essay), drawing on fourteen years of Longbarrow Press. Here's the link:
