Mocking the Dead

Pigeons, being Pigeons, Inadvertently Mock the dead As does the passing Stray dog. If left alone Children Will play among them Witnessed By a murder Of crows.

That's what I call the ultimate in mockery. But I guess being pooped on in the grave is better than being pooped on while living.

Imagery of pigeon poop on gravestones, and ditto with doggy do. John, it may sound like I'm being humorous, but I'm not. What is more mocking than taking a dump on someone's grave? Your movie title ending is a fantastic finale'
