DEATH, DUENDE, MASKS, TOMBSTONES, AND GHOSTS.

People crave immortality and, not surprisingly, this desire manifests itself in everything from tombstone monuments to vampires, all forms art, poems, songs, and stories.

Comment by Fleur Helsingor on March 10, 2011 at 3:35am: I took this photo at Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland, California, U.S.A. This tombstone with the weeping woman is one of my favorites, and there's a lovely poem there as well.

If I had a headstone, my epitaph would be short and sweet:

NEVER ASSUME ANYTHING ......

Comment by My Life As A Collage on March 9, 2011 at 7:26pm: that is the most amazing story i have heard in a long time, Erni. thank you!

(the whole interment thing kinda weirds me out, so can we agree that if i DO have a tombstone, i wil not be under it...)

i think i'd put something like "don't look behind you!" or "boo!" or some random thing to creep people out.

...or maybe i could put those dance instruction footprints on it - maybe a fot trot? - so people could dance on my grave. people like dancing, yes? so it's a happy thing.

Comment by Bifidus Jones on March 9, 2011 at 3:54pm: Dang that's good Erni.

Comment by Valentine Mark Herman on March 9, 2011 at 10:41am: Hey Valentin, NO, NO, NO, you don't have to correct at all! What you sent is great. The Template is for people who are unsure how to proceed. People can intepret the theme any way they like, as you have done. (You can use the template if you want to have a second Tombstone). Back to Space now, Regards, Valentine
