A Monument Is Death To a Famous Icon
Just as the pyramids are famous cones
And dinosaurs are famous bones
Just as diamond are famous stones
We shall live forever as famous skeletons
Death is never far
It’s a closer than the closest star
It’s a short trip down to the spar
More tangible than a foetus in a jar
Just as a plastic surgeon knows a nose
The lie of a high of an accidental overdose
Just as a heatbeat echoes a pulse
Death's dilemma lies in a comatose
Just as an anointed king to the throne
Lives forever like a nuclear powered drone
It’s the size of blood clot in a vein
A monument is death to a famous icon
