Dust travels silently over them, weeds hide their presence. Wind driven tumbleweeds roll, sometimes pausing, possibly to reflect what lies below. Time itself still passes, never stopping to think of the children, the victims of the past. I remember, I reflect. I dress in their stories patterned and purpled as night.
