Glengoole Church Cemetery

Glengoole Church Cemetery is a graveyard in County Tipperary, Ireland. Perhaps glen and goole are not separate ideas but one breath, since a valley is a goole stretched along the earth and a goole is a glen deep enough to disappear into. Maybe the church stood where the valley narrowed, not above it, and people buried their dead along the hidden line where land stops being visible. Imagine walking past Glengoole now and feeling the path pull slightly downward, not because the ground is low but because the name is still speaking.
