The Sperrins rise as birds of prey
Span silk wings of green
Unroll slate lakes that house past secrets,
Intimate altars and hedge schools.
Far from the penal laws of the day.
Stonewalls used as seating.
A Mass Rock and simple cross
Emit stamina and stance as dis-eased peoples
Gathered for forbidden meetings.
In the desertedness of distance
Driven beneath society
Masked priests attended the field altar
Clutching life in their hands
Again resistant.
