Chiselled
with garish italic typefaces and moribund messages they expose
the semi-iliterate
sentimental language not of the interred, but of the plastic
rose romanticism and soup-from-a-can philosophy of the Post War

It's a Barrat housing estate for the dearly departed....
An easily maintained, des-res lump of stone with its very own
mattress of damp grass. One down payment and nothing more to
pay until the Earth gets swallowed by an expanding sun. |
