What is recorded here
Grave Yard is a graveyard in County Mayo, Ireland. It is not a temporary burial pit nor a forgotten field, though wind still moves through it and rain keeps its ledgers. The dead gave up heat, breath and ambition there. The living take them back when they love, remember or face their own ending.
