A Disturbed Grave

Overgrown by moss and ling cleared by scythe and unsteady hand reveals a burrow filled with flint. A fox or badger has been at work that the sexton has since refilled, or has something escaped from the sodden earth to reveal the space within. My mind is disturbed like this place of rest of a poor villager from centuries past - formless, nameless, but free at last.
