In Memory of a Funeral

by Amy Manning

He sputtered off into a dribbly silence. His saliva was pooled on the shiny wooden table.

That’s the kind of waitress that works on money drive.
Man’s got money, man’s got booze.

“And when he got to the end,”

A tear shaped drop somersaulted to its southern oasis.

“He realizes that he’ done nothing in the time another man could have done everything.”

Take another sip, Pops.

“Gnnuh, Awful shit. I’m such an awful shit.”
