Elegy to Alan and Michael

I miss you Michael a really great friend 
When I dropped by your flat you  got me high
Gave me game DVD’s to the end
Brain cancer killed you, so sorry good bye

You were on a morphine drip to kill pain 
Shocking to see the way you were in bed
My visit to you was not done in vain
Drained of life,I was shocked, you did look dead 

Alan you were a great friend to the end
You were great at doing air brush art too
You are Freewheeling Franklin -I commend
He died falling down a stairwell it’s true
