Ode to My Funeral (inspired by a true story)

When I die, will you dance at my funeral?

Would you have loved me enough to wear your favorite tutu

twirl your very best twirls

and point your toes?




When I die, will you dance at my funeral?


Even when all others will concentrate on suppressing a smirk


Will you proudly resemble a pink jelly bean


up on the stage?




When I die, will you sing at my funeral?


Will you clasp your hands before you


warble your strongest warble


and attempt your best opera?




If you love me, you will dance your best dance


and warble your best warble


and embarrass yourself as much as possible


And hopefully accomplish my goal-


to crack everybody up.







At your expense.



Now THAT would be an awesome funeral.
(Dedicated to the most pious and godly Deb Marth.Amen.)
