Parody Parade

all were seen
seen walking
down in slow
shuffles of
feeling down

down the street
music played
with a somber
melody as if
trumpets were

crying and the
trombone moaning
but at the place the
resting place where
lowered down the music

turned up
beat and
everyone
clapped
and sang

shake 
that thang 
in a jazz 
funeral in
Pennsylvania
