an avalanche of death slid down the mountain crying.. screaming.. choking.. voices fading mummy it's dark it hurts help me their light goes out Aberfan grows dim and a taste of death lingers in the town innocence destroyed now you pretend there is no one there maybe you even fooled me for a while but I will find you soon I will cross the river

I know your name it's been written in the book for years
