    I hope this wasn’t based on a true story.

    Very well written.

  5. Mandolin says:

    Oh, no.

    It’s actually from a four-part poem I wrote in college about complicated (and emotionally unacceptable) reactions to death… the other three parts were based on true stories, though, so.

  6. Charles S says:

    I sort of feel it is wrong of me, but I burst out laughing at the end line. Nicely done.

  7. Medea says:

    I love the music/words combination. It was perfectly paced.
