Last Wishes It was sad and sweet when I went to meet My grandfather long dead buried in a flower bed Where waking worms eating make my stomach squirm And wriggly sweet, good to eat, dead man's meat Makes a feast for creatures galore. Irreverence is a specialty and complicity is Compulsory meetings in groans and weepings Of women who know better but are slow To let go of my shirt tail they always fail In all endeavors so I get by on favors. At my end towards me no mind bend A bow Ithikan lays down evil stricken With disease are all corpses stench from afar Let it be heard that joy and grief are blurred By my final burning the savings used for partying. |

LOL, there is a lot happening in this one. Last wishes for me? To die with a smile... that's the only way to go. Otherwise I'm not going. |
