MAUSOLEUM ASHES

A  project was initiated in January 2019 for magazine Mausolus edited by Han Tame. Involving a lonely visit to Southampton's only mausoleum in an attempt to connect with the affluent dead. The original poem and output has been reworked into a zine format march 2024

Mausoleum 

JESUS SAID UNTO HER 

I AM THE RESSURECTION AND THE LIFE

 HE THAT BELIVETH 

IN ME THOUGH HE WERE DEAD


Page 2/3:

The stone is cold and

 cherubs hover above me triumphantly, 

I knock on the door.  

How can wood be so numbing?  

They are only dead below and there is no one to answer.  

Nichols Mausoleum Old Cemetery SW


Page 4/5: 

Bluebell wood

 Ivy undergrowth 

Paths blocked 

and slippery 

Nought left but 

few scant 

slippery memories.

Ashes

ALL GO TO THE SAME PLACE

ALL COME FROM DUST, 

AND TO DUST 

ALL RETURN
