The Funeral is a thirty-poem journey into the theater of death, told unapologetically from the voice of the deceased herself. A woman silenced in life finds her sharpest voice in death, guiding us through every detail of her farewell-from the cheap lilies to the crooked hymns, from the fake mourners to the secrets she carries into the grave. Structured in four acts and a prologue, the collection unfolds like a play.Equal parts ode and free verse, the poems weave grandeur with sarcasm, mourning with mockery, tragedy with biting humor. The Funeral is not a quiet elegy but a rebellious requiem-an unmasking of false grief and a celebration of the unyielding voice of a woman who refuses to vanish quietly.Dark, lyrical, and unsparingly honest, this collection asks its readers: when the curtain falls on your story, will you be mourned-or will you write your own applause?
