interweaving walks through burial grounds
“interweaving walks through burial grounds”
–
today I am on a walk
on my own
starting on #cityroad
please join me
if you are about
–
I have recently established
through #collaborative play
that solitariness
effects sadness
while togetherness
is much more me
–
my Andrew has been
telling me this for years
I now fully agree
–
I find myself
at the entrance
to #bunhillfields
burial ground
where #iceboy & I
played walked & talked
the other day
–
James I wish you were here today
I have many questions
on so many levels
a bit like all these blocks of tombstones
standing strong
–
ok I hear you, and thanks
I will ask away
as your words of answers
I know, will come my way
–
James do body bones count
as moving #backtothebody
#outofthehead?
I hear your answer
loud & clear
yes kb they do
bones in burial grounds
through death
are #backtothebody
barriers of life & head
are shedded
–
James does that mean
we all become
#ofonebody in death?
yes – that is good
–
James as we talk
I will stop by my fathers grave
to tell him
the good news
so he too can be at peace
from his mind for eternity
–
James
when in this place
of ‘who’ is who
forever resting heads
with bodies
joined as one . . .
I have this
#flowerbodyimage
a daisy
picked for you
by your son
afterwhich you said
#iceboy was bore
James let us all rejoice
–
I think I must be on the cusp
of too many questions for one day
one more query
for Maija
before I continue on my path
–
Maija I miss you
are you about for a walkandtalk?
James & #iceboy
are tuning in as I ask:
does this
Burial Ground
count as Common Land?
a field of #bodybonesasone?
where we have
the right to be?
whether or not
we are moving through
with intent?
or shortcutting
from city road to bunhillrow
as I can see people are doing
to shorten their lunch hour path?
or whether like me
our destination is unknown
as we play
walkandtalk
amoung
the body of ‘WHO’?
