We All Love The
Dead
We all love the
dead.
Thats why we go to
funerals,
keep them in urns,
attend seances,
send prayers,
write tributes,
talk about them
endlessly.
To wonderful
friends
who lend a
sympathetic, patient ear
in the days
following
a loss:
Thank you
for helping those
left behind
compose the poetry
of the world.
