• Spoiling the mound

  Staring out the open casement The nearby heath hides a hidden cache Ancient loot is stored away, encased by the ground’s elevation The groundskeeper is made to ready his spades I take a conveyance to the site I believe to be a grave Brave despite nascent night, by a brazier’s sawing light The men did…

• STONEHENGE SECRETS 

  Half light half shadow  Half snakes half ladders William Stukeley, mind you he was a mason He was amazed By the henges The ancients’ ways Kept him awake Days he spent on knees digging ditches Sweating between the cordons  A serpent mound, Atlantean in origin A porous rock they poured concrete in to stopper a…
