obituary

 

I wonder what they will say about me when I am dead and gone      I imagine my obituary will be heavy     I’ve taken on mythological significance in certain quarters     because  I corrupted god’s will and made an abomination of my heart    the searing light of reality brings old lies and fractured truths into sharp relief    pitiless disclosure leaves no place to hide      I’m that terrible man     who feasted on people’s dreams      and then sold them down the Swanee      I’ve done some terrible things      but never by intention      things went wrong       things went horribly wrong     it’ll say so on my headstone
