Who Wouldn’t Mind Being Remembered? Who wouldn’t mind being remembered? It’s not the same as wanting fame - Naiveté’s vanity its other name. Who wouldn’t mind some impact? An itch to reach out Maybe teach, knowing one knows so little – Naught at all – We are so small. But art is there, And impulse wants from within wants out, Shouts quietly with word When you yourself have disappeared. Who Wouldn’t Mind Being Remembered? 8.16.2017 Birth, Death & In Between II; Arlene Corwin

Think of all the burial & after-death customs.
