My dear friend, may your night be soft.

I hope your passing ensnares the heart,

but leaves the memories still.

Your expiration has passed,

and mine will follow in time.

I hope to hear of your exploits,

of the beyond, and everything that is highly fashionable.

May our love shine up and lift your spirit through ethereal gates.

Spread your wings and flutter magically like your basey tunes.

Let your voice rumble, and play that ol’ rock ‘n’ roll

While your party with god’s angels goes on till we can join you.
