Bare branches and weathered stones stand sentinel.

Wirrabara Cemetery, Wirrabara, South Australia.

While the town of Wirrabara was proclaimed in 1874, the formal establishment of a local cemetery was a key concern for residents in the following years. A meeting to formally address "the want of a cemetery" and have it fenced was held around September 1880.

The cemetery contains graves dating back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, reflecting the history of the early settlers and families in the area.

It is located on the Main North Road in Wirrabara, within the District Council of Mount Remarkable.

DRAMATIS PERSONAE

AUTOR.
JULIETTE (Bruja ZT)
CALLEJONA PSICÓPATA (Morrúa cabezona.)
2 SANTURRONES.

JOPO (de Juliette).
OJETE (de la Callejona psicópata).

—¡Ha sonado el picaporte!
—¡Pero, antes del Truco o Trato,
tráeme de higiénico un lote,
que me acabé el de excusado!

La Bruja Zacate Tones
vuela en lampazo a cancela,
y atisba a dos santurrones
por la rejilla entre nieblas.
Calzones de cuello vuelto
que atoran el asterisco,
tallan tan gozosos gestos
con #sexappeal #mistiquillo:

—Bonjour, ¿Caperù du Noir?-
Rebotó tirria: -¿#Difuntos?
—Qué primorosa es, ¿verdad?
—¿Llamar a tu mamá, es mucho?
—¿En Día de #Halloween? ¿Yo?
¿Y por qué antes no me dicen
qué casta de zombis son?
Católicamente insisten:
—Por supuestito, ricura.
Por mundo hay que ir con verdad.
¿Lees de este encarte mayúsculas?
CON CIRIOS, NO ENCIENDE EL MAR.

Morrúa Pandora indispuesta,
sobre la taza se abruma.
¿Oís…? Se cultiva en ponencias
de “Ecos de #Catacumba”.

—¡Con quién platicas, Juliette!

Puso mueca sepulcral
de #Llorona al responder:

—¡Con cínicos! ¡No enmierdes más!

Retiro a tiempo es muy santo,
desistir de imponer cacas.
la Callejona en su escaño
con tronío churrea ramblas.

Y un jopo a lejía bendijo:
—¡#Huellas de institupringados!

Y ojete a quevedos dijo:
—¡Me urge otro Manual del #Beato!
