What is recorded here

Carnuff Little and Haystown in County Meath contain an old burial, yet even the state archive has not finished describing it. That silence is not emptiness; it is a jar of milk kept from the shop, waiting for a clean cup and a steady hand. The dead did not leave behind a website or a date they could be forced into. They left a shape in the earth, and the shape still holds its breath.
