Skeleton of Paris

TO PRESERVE YOUR HEALTH YOU MUST RESERVE YOUR DATE AND TIME TO ENTER THE EMPIRE OF DEATH “Arrête, c'est ici l'empire de la mort!" Sign in Paris Catacombs SKELETON OF PARIS i dared each dank step into the catacombs of Paris thank the Lord each step was not creaking bone i’d descend, of course my choice, my feet move into the nether the deep dark secret tomb a heavy door surreality adorned below the stinking streets the foul history of death dredged up from six feet deep dusted and cleansed the mandibles, joints, heartless bones the boneyard quarry accentuated death having a new spin on “putting our heads together,” a collaboration of dust the bleak hallway, I dare not touch, i cross myself ashes to ashes, dust to dust attempting to stay in the center of the narrow way O the clink and clank the synergy that will fuse these bodies together at the end of time who will be the first to awaken? will he or she faint away as they discover their dissected bones? The artful remains of Robespierre, Lavoisier, Danton - the dearly beheaded come to life, guests of downtown…way downtown Paris. Upwards of seven million squeezed together. The leap of disease…the health crisis relieved. 1/13/2022
