Celebrate!
Celebrate having known her!
Celebrate the knowledge you are privileged to share
her shallow depth and deep cold-heartedness
the seriousness that was ever there
the facade, the pomp, and pain.
Celebrate immortal knowledge
achieved by her influence
on you, your family and friends —
knowledge through unsavory remembrance:
justice is but a walking shadow, always whispering:
high tide! fresh bread!
And I have to yell back:
no pennies! Prima Donna!”
