A Funeral at Evergreen Cemetery

A Poem by Vicki L.

Read a few poems about death and this is what came out.

The set the box in arid earth,

and they stood at the back

never daring to touch,

already

separated,

buried under

regret.

Meh. I've been stewing on this for a while. Not so much on the actual words, but more the idea. Comments and suggestions are always appreciated. Thanks for reading!
