1
Keeper of abbeys,
2
his name was carved in the grey stone,
3
it was the angel of the north.
4
Reaching for a last
5
remnant of the light;
6
it catches the high stones.
7
He came down from the moors,
8
he'd seen much better days,
9
he set himself to the rain.
10
Keeper of abbeys,
11
his name was carved in the grey stone,
12
it was the angel of the north.
13
Reaching for the light
14
rising like the cooling towers
15
of the edgelands.
16
Weathered like the stone,
17
long ago he set himself to the rain.
18
Keeper of abbeys,
19
his name was carved in the grey stone,
20
it was the angel of the north.
21
In his eyes,
22
the embers of love,
23
fading and failing,
24
if you look close
25
if you look hard,
26
you can see the traces.
27
He has become the stones;
28
weathered to fall
29
reaching for the last
30
dying ray of light
31
in a valley in the north
32
where a river runs its course.
33
(he had wanted to travel"¦)
