Dark Stage

Dark Stage


Show time!

For once 
in my anonymously
supporting drone life 

I am to be
the headline act

Stylist adorns
me in my best threads

Makeup applied
to cover my flaws

Laid out pretty
in my shiny box home

My guests

who came 
from far and wide
to pay their respects

Touching my
cold heart
with their somberness

My funeral dirge

Final chapter
of my autobiography

I wish my friends
weren't all so sad

at the launch of me
into the mystery
of eternity
