Pere Lachaise Cemetery






 




 My mission today was to finish the “Flower” series. I finished at 12:30 pm. I decided to go to see Jim Morrison’s grave. I took the Bus 69 to the cemetery. It was raining which I thought was fitting. When I got off at the entrance of the cemetery, the sun had returned. I walked thru the cobblestone, mausoleum  filled space where ravens crowed planting themselves on the finials of the monuments. I found the grave. It is squeezed in among other more prominent monuments. He was buried quickly without any family or friends. His parents learned of his death in the Washington Post.  The idea of celebrity, flowed thru my mind. I live in obscurity.
