The Open Casket Poem by Dani Millar

The Open Casket



The silver satin cloth sat in the casket
beneath the body.
The casket was open, like a mouth
sharing a shocking secret.
Their closed lips compose solemn silence,
as their soul transforms from fact into fiction.
Let the reposed rise and let the alive anguish.
