The Conversation of the Dead and the Living

at kampung kampung cemetery this morning

“Good morning guys spirit“, I said, pretending to be friendly
“Good morning my friend,” replied one of the graves inside

“How’s the situation down there, is it safe?”
“It’s not good down here, it’s crowded, what are the conditions up there?”
“It’s not good here either, it’s crowded, the price of rice has gone up, it’s the most expensive in Southeast Asia”
“Wow, your president is still the old one, isn’t he?”
“still bro”
“oh, it’s not surprising”

the conversation was interrupted
with the roar of two warplanes in the air
flying home to the coop

“Okay, my friend, continue your pilgrimage, don’t get tired lifeof”
“Thank you my friend, you won’t be bored either deadof”
“Stag, you!” [eFTe]
