"Remembrance and Humor" by Elexer Lyra


Remembrance and Humor

By Elexer Lyra




Will the witty wasp
sting me today with my
attempts at humor?
To try to make others laugh
in replacement for one's own
is a noble gift
in this month of reflection.
I see my own mortality
in the faces of those
now buried
or burned.
Mind in cycles of denial
and remembrance.
A break is needed
so let laughs
pull
at my cheeks.
