I fancy my wake
and wonder who will be there,
and in my undertaking
I fancy someone will speak eulogies
to my body, drained of blood,
in a casket.
The crowd in rows of black and white
holding kerchiefs tapping their cheeks
whispering,
the world lost a wonderful person yet again.
In my thoughts, I think I just want to lay
beneath the ground and rot.
And feel no more.
