A written work by poet Kay Syrad, commissioned in 2013 for a multi-media art project, ‘Last Station’, funded by ACE, with support from Trinity House and inspired by the history and work of the manned Light Vessels stationed around the British Isles from 1732–1989. The book takes the form of a fold-out poem, the text arranged in a particular format, a verb starting each line, which enumerate the tasks performed by lightship workers. The tasks described are authentic tasks performed by light men, drawn from reading of autobiographical accounts, professional journals, instruction manuals, and interviews of the lightship men. The rhythm of the verses echoes the rhythm of the flickering lights of the light vessels.
