two for one burial plots

while sititng in the doctor's
office waiting to have
a suspicious mole removed
you see a two for one
ad in a magazine for burial
plots and cut it out with
a pair of scissors you borrow
from the receptionist. you fight
off the thought that you
have become your mother
and read the small print
with a magnifying glass.
it's not a bad deal. the grounds
look lovely. rose bushes
dot the land, oak trees
shade the rows and rows
of very nice white and
grey headstones. there's
some sort of thick green
hedge that hides the surrounding
chain link fence. you could
see being buried there until
someone puts a condo up. not
a bad deal this two for one.
but what would you do
with the extra grave?
you could call your ex wife
but then she'd think you
were up to something
devious,so that's out. you
could give it to someone
for their birthday or
christmas, but it might seem
odd and tasteless. and then
you think, why not
use both for yourself.
have a little extra room,
stretch out, like you do in
bed. maybe diagonally
arms over your head,
legs akimbo.
