After I Am Gone
My grandchildren will fight the bonfire for my paintings after I am dead.
Their parents will try to nix it, but they will insist, for I’ll be a saint then.
My paintings are stacked all over my house, in my bathtub and under the bed.
I can hardly wait for my death, when my sainthood can truly begin.
