I’ve been thinking
About my epitaph
But I’ve no idea
What it should say
Maybe they’ll just use
A photograph
To keep the ghouls
At bay
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
I’ve been thinking
About my epitaph
But I’ve no idea
What it should say
Maybe they’ll just use
A photograph
To keep the ghouls
At bay
I can’t
look at
your
photos
anymore
They make
my heart
too heavy
and my eyes
too sore
If only I
could pair
beautiful
imagery with
my words,
lilting melody
to my song,
revelatory
meaning to
my poetry…
Perhaps it
wouldn’t
bore the
shit out
of you
as much
to read it,
as it
does me to
write it.
