Eulogy on the A
Bus
man
says how
he had to
cremate his son 'cause
it cost too much to bury him
and now he plans to get off by the Walgreens where he
will pick up his diabetes pills that he also can't afford and go sprinkle the
ashes in the tulip beds of the Dairy Queen drive-through where he last kissed his son on the
temple and felt good in his chest about the world.
