I go to a funeral each day
I am the widow dressed in black
My tears always neat in place
I light a candle to squandered
love
I got a rooster as a pet
To wake me at the break of dawn
Stop dreaming widow he’ll crow
We have a funeral today
I drizzle us with my perfume
Give us a polish and a shine
He grabs my leash and off we go
We have a funeral today
Respectfully we bow our heads
Follow the coffin at a slow pace
Then watch resigned as it
descends
Deeper and deeper every day
Flightless flying multi-feathered
valentine
Lost from the loss of the unfound
