Wake

There was a wake In our general outpost Just a two minutes walk away from home I think it's the ninth funeral this year? Last month, A 22 years old; non-binary; lesbian died on suicide. Before that, There's an old man found dead because of heart attack. Then our neighbor, I don't know why. And when I passed them I wished they are happy Because the mourners did Three of them shouted "Bingo" But, I'll be honest I hope it's my turn next.
