Gold and silver battle ***** torn from swords saddles and crosses lying beneath a farmer's field tributes to kings and bellicose gods. Fierce birds of prey snakes fish and bears framed in filigree geometry guarded warriors' savage souls. No mercy in Mercia. Archeologists anthropologists historians librarians curators and consertvators collect confer and classify while I just try to connect.
