Dance Macabre

Dance Macabre 
 
Soon we all will all look 
30 when we die,
which will please undertakers? 
Death will be called a voyage, 
on an everlasting cruise ship
and the purser will send 
festive cards 
from romantic ports. 
No, grand dad is not dead he is resting
and he is wearing makeup because he is going on 
a passenger ship to be dancing partner
for old ladies.
