	In this scene, Prior opens by saying that the funeral was "tacky"(Kushner 167). His comment is odd because he, even though he is no longer a drag queen, should have appreciated another queen's abnormality. Instead he seems to resent many of the things that he used to hold so dearly. He is also dealing with the idea of death. He is just completely unhappy at the funeral with the thought of his own funeral.Later in the scene, Prior tells Belize that his "eyes are fucked up" (Kushner 168). He says that his vision has been different since he encountered the angel. Literally, he may indeed see differently, but this could be symbolic of another change. Consistent with his distaste of the drag queen funeral, Prior is changing his entire perception of the world. At this point one can not determine where his opinions will go, and, quite possibly, neither does Prior.		In this scene, Prior opens by saying that the funeral was "tacky"(Kushner 167).
