THE NORMAN KEEP Poem by Aifric Mac Aodha

THE NORMAN KEEP



We know how to fall in line
with laws, language and habits.

Within the keep the tiny
window conjures expanses:

a wide-ranging view to take in
while you stay well out of reach.

I came on a badger out walking,
convulsed in its rigor mortis.

Today it was part of the wisdom
that lingers for all who pass.
