Whispering in language of ancient stones,
they creep down walls to shake their limestone bones.
Haunting Oxford's cobbled lanes
and peering through window panes.
Will grotesque lore
try to open your door?

“The many men, so beautiful!
And they all dead did lie:
And a thousand thousand slimy things
Lived on; and so did I.”

Features distorted in the flickering light
Faces are twisted and grotesque
Silent and stern in the sweltering night
The mob moves like demons possessed
Quiet in conscience, calm in their right
Confident their ways are best

(12 September 1952 – 7 January 2020)
