Dear Dad,

You are gone and I am here

Oh pain whom I sought through tears that tears through in the night

Tearing through in soul and body like a sharpen knife

In my thoughts, I am lost in my own fear, gasping for breath trying to understand

Imagination, I may have and yet a mystery to life I shall have

Grief weighs heavily on one’s shoulders, expecting to bear the burden that I am given

Tell me what is a daughter to do in light of your absence

How am I to keep the family together if you are gone

Such a burden to bear now that you are gone.

I am not even sure what can be done

Now that you are no longer here.

What am I to do, Dad?

You are simply a picture, a jar of ash and tokens of remembrance

You haunt mom, did you know that?

She misses you and wanders endlessly into the dark, searching for you hands and into your arms

I sometimes tug back, onto that rope I so dutifully craft yet it’s not enough

She goes to far and I’m dragged in

I’m tried, so so tired of sadness and grief

Of death and funeral processions

Tell me Dad, what am I to do now that you are dead 💀

The proper scholarly way of reading the iliad is to acknowledge that there is no good or bad and that everyone must be viewed with the same complex morality, but my preferred method is to pick out a babygirl or two and cling on for dear life

#lucked out on Odysseus he got a whole sequel #hector not so much #sorry bbg but at least the poem ended on your funeral #got the last laugh in

my fiance @stephanie-lauter drew me this for my birthday. i was thinking about ruth's funeral :( and i thought that pete would pick out this poem for her funeral, but he would be too distraught to read it so stephanie would read it on his behalf.

#the poem is funeral blues by w h auden #nerdy prudes must die #ruth fleming #npmd #stephanie lauter #peter spankoffski

The dream

I dreamed a dream tonight

That you were by my side

We were talking it was calm

But something still felt wrong

So when I woke up I finally realised

That I stopped missing you

Cause for the first time

I was happier not being asleep

A Poem :)

This is the first bit in one of the novels I am working on, about a girl running away to upstate New York.

_—*⭐️*—_

Being put in a casket sounds horrible. I pity those who don't have the pleasure of decomposing in the dirt—those who will never fully and truly get to give back what the earth had given to them years before.

A body.

A home.

When I die, I don’t wish to be buried in a stiff wooden box with the rest of the trapped, damned skeletons in a crumbling graveyard.

No, when I die, I wish to be stripped of my clothes and my humanity. I wish to put in the ground—where I belong—with no mortal possessions or attachments. I won't need them where I'm going.

I want to feel my hair fall out into the soil; feel my skin melt and slide off my brittle bones. I want to be able to hear the worms crawling through me, and the flower stems weaving through my eye sockets as my bones break and fall apart under the past weight of my living and my worries

When I die, let me rot.
