Long Forgotten For Friend David Threadgold Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

Who dares?
Disturb my peace
after so may years.

My sleep
was undisturbed.
Who is it dares to peep.

This grave
is mine alone.
It is all that I have.

To show
who I once was.
What do you seek to know?

My bones.
Are all that’s left
here beneath these stones.

Which mark
my resting place
Here in the quiet dark.

Begone
you have no right
in truth to look upon.

Remains
mouldering here
What do you hope to gain.

Leave me
in peace and go.
Your curiosity

Is no
concern of mine.
Why should you seek to know.

Why I
am buried here.
Dry bones will not reply.

My curse
will fall on you.
Things go from bad to worse.

Swiftly
flee from this place.
Where you’re not meant to be.

I lay
hidden from sight
for years until today.

Why do
you disturb me.
There is no reason to.

Leave me
to sleep in peace
here where I ought to be.

Alone
Contentedly
hidden away unknown
