To Be Remembered Poem by Ben Gieske

TO BE REMEMBERED

Death
only one try at it
it better be good.

But what do I know about
dying?
never done it before

what will be said?
he looks............... good.
OH, COME ON

this is the last time you’ll
see me.
that’s good?

no matter
i’ll be ashes
dust to dust...... nice urn


all those secrets
they’ll find some of them
i won’t be there... spared

we all leave something
behind
we want to be remembered

But, it’s never the way we think
i mean, the way we imagine
i mean, the way we plan

whatever
Que sera, sera

At least there will be a
future for them
as soon as i can
let go
