Individuality makes us human


When you die, I promise you
there are some things I will do
As they lay you down to rest
I'll throw some roses on your chest
No one's crying in the crowd
I'm singing Thriller nice and loud
Your lifeless body won't be alone
I'll bring a bottle of rum from home
And don't feel guilty about leaving me here
I've got a condo and a six pack of beer
I love you so much
But we'll be in touch
I keep my cell phone near...

I just hope they have cell service down there ;)

I promised my friend I'd keep her funeral fun and happy. And I thought of this poem. (Just in case you didn't get it, she didn't die and go to Heaven like you'd think.)

This was a delightful poem. Although it was quite funny, it was oddly touching.
