When I die
It will certainly be
My most ungraceful act
I beg of you
Please universe
Powers that be
Let me die in the middle
Of one hell of a kerfuffle
In a blaze of glory
Or better yet – Embarrassment
Let me be cringe for the last time
Let me embody the malice
Channel the pure absurdity
It has been to live this human life
I have felt so effervescent
So intangibly here
So happy and simultaneously sad
To have the need or desire
To even exist
How comedic – Ironic
To need your last moment to be
Everything that made living matter
Whatever has made living worthwhile
I want a cacophony of that
A smorgasbord of it all
I want it all happening simultaneously
Overloading my senses
Overstimulate me one last time
So I can be left to rot in peace
Wear bright colors to my funeral
Throw me a party
Made up of everything I’ve loved
My ghost will be rocking with you
A fickle promise
With a lot of meaning
A lingering hope of Eternity
