An Excerpt From the Journal of Tearless Funerals

Entry 129

Jan 28 1917
Harley Madison:

Harley Madison:
Here lies Harley
Found hanging on a noose
They say he was a burden to his friends and family
and exchanged no self-sacrifice
Like parasite and host.

another passing leaf
Blowing down the road
Like the next
As time unfolds
And moss piles to stone.

May your life be better than his
may you decide to die
and become fully alive
