The Funeral
May 6, 2015
I hear the lifelessness in the room
The False sense of beauty is dominant
The perfect rows of white refurbished vintage chairs
The loud distractions of screaming color are engulfing us
Baby blue, shimmering gold, and pearl white walls screeching through my eyes
The silent organs playing harsh keys
The shy sun dwindling away the snow
The intentional laughter to pick us up
The rehearsed meaningless speech
