Drum New Graveyard

Drum New Graveyard is a graveyard in County Roscommon, Ireland. Perhaps the new graveyard in Roscommon is young enough that its soil still remembers warmth, maybe the graves are shallow because the dead are restless and the stones are smooth because no one has had time to carve them. Imagine a place where burial is a rehearsal, where the living keep returning to adjust the shape of the hole and the dead keep listening for the next change.
