  Hello

hey sugar!

I made my best friend swear to read this at my funeral 

a fine choice

wrt actual deaths and funerals, my mind always goes to Millay’s “Dirge Without Music,” to which I am stubbornly partial, but it’s not something you’d request for yourself. and tbh it doesn’t strike the ideal note: it’s the opposite of calming or soothing, which is a tonality I do value in this context and have had excellent rl outcomes with in speaking with the bereaved, but like maybe not in the formal speeches. possibly a bit much, emotionally speaking, to impose on either the reader or the attendees. although I suppose people do read Auden's “Funeral Blues” all the time at funerals, and that one is at least as harrowing. 

is this DC Cab?
