(Re: Christ Church Cathedral Dublin
and the National Museum of Ireland)

Dubliners are fascinated
with what never was cremated.

Mummified remains draw many
paying fees or not a penny

to meander through dark rooms
and examine glassy tombs

where some cat and rat lie spaced
or bog bodies have been placed.

Tourists also want to see them:
hard to tell church from museum.
