If You Want To Know The Truth

 If you’ve spent a lot of  time in Funeral Homes

and Cemeteries

the obvious doesn’t affect you.

Shadows over tombstones,

crows strolling across graves

and mourners standing over old graves with the lettering worn away

are as common place in your day

as getting stuck in traffic or not being able to find your keys.

It’s the little things, the sublte things

that you see

when you wake up in the middle of the

night.

  1. You know, it’s for this reason I envy my husband as he gets to work in such a beautiful, quiet, and plush surrounding everyday. But none of the strange, macabre, or unordinary shakes us up, for we are accustomed to it all by now.

  2. There are worse worlds then the strange and macabre to live in, but it agrees with me. It would be fun to go back to a time when those places scared me though.

    BTW loved your blog!

  3. Cemetries have always intrigued me, mostly cos of all those unknown stories. I like to look at the names and make up tales about them. My favourites are always the weird names…….and yes, I’m one of the ones that is still easily scared!
