Bury me next to the safari
in Arugambay
sprinkle my ashes in the north after the snow has fallen
play Hector and Avicii at the wake
dance on the tables until the morning comes
serve cheesecake and white wine
pray to whoever you want
hug all the guests,
no one should leave alone
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Share stories from my life
the bad ones too
decorate the place with dream catchers
someone could recite a few poems
If I die before my mother
embrace her and make sure she has lots of handkerchiefs
my brother can wash the dishes
my sister will perform a dance
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t look at pictures or PowerPoint presentations
look around you
get to know each other
so you will always remember me,
a girl at whose funeral you found a new friend
and the cheesecake tasted lovely
