a one hundred and twenty first poem...'burial'

Stalked by rain clouds
Low and mean across the
Blasted moor, four fingers
Deep in pockets full of
Moss and earth, underneath
His nails a lifetime’s worth of
Dirt, below his feet a
Sinking morass of sodden peat -
The wind dies, then the deathless
Silence is complete.
