The General's Funeral... Poem by RIC BASTASA

The General's Funeral...



will there be a heavy rain
on the general's funeral?

the family members say, please understand,
do not need your flowers.

they wish there must always
be sunshine and at least fifteen minutes of silence,

that will be enough,
to pay for the last respect, and then
back to chaos.
