Death Grins

Death grins with Pale emotion My now Stone corpse is floating o'er ocean arms are stiff and the rest without color cadaver shows no signs of a sweet rigor mortis And overhead above the casket The Reaper is smiling:"YOU'RE DEAD,FANTASTIC!" It leaves a bitter after taste that will linger Caressing the body and the unmoved finger Why would ANY BODY or ANY THING- cause to laugh at this poor soul who can no longer sing Fear? The audacity in pure Evil? Many try to hide The Sickness,humor,and selfish pride I must ask you,though.. DO NOT go along with Death's charade Repent your Laughter before this existence fade God will Forgive any provoking parade
