Nicely done, Charmer! I had to look up “popped your clogs” but I guessed the use of “murder” played off of it. Understanding it now makes the dark humour more fun. 😁

Ah, thank you my friend! ☺️ Sometimes I worry my darker poems don’t always land the way I intend them to – so glad this one did for you! 😁 And yes, got to love a wee idiom here and there too! ☺️🖤
