Christ on a cross
the symbol - resurrection
Life after Death
a nice gesture

Hopes in the form of prayer flood
the faux pillow of your
stage
coffin
resting place
******* box
please.  I'm just glad his eyes are closed

Jesus bronzed and bouncing
wishes up to heaven
Did you catch any of those?
I'm taking him home, you know
the crucifix over your chest
to lock in a box
like you
in the dark
where the dead belong
funerals are tough business
and fathers are sometimes hard to understand
