Premium Member What be Ye, Preacher or Mortician
What be Ye, Preacher or Mortician? A mortician prepares and buries the remains. The hole he or she digs is for a lifeless corps, free of soul. And the eulogy is of poppies and the utterance of past misdeeds restrained. A preacher lifts and builds the spirit with truth. The gates he or she illuminates is for souls of the...

Gun Salute To Mortician
Much finer than she was battling with death, Nicer than when she had survivor’s breath Returned to her hurt face the freshest health; Like one who’d begun anew to test wealth… Twenty-One Gun Salute to Mortician: For Morticians I’d turn a musician In all my songs rank one Perfect Magician; I wouldn’t trouble the word ‘Beautician’… Then, cash does motivate...

Frowning Corpse To Start Smiling
Ahead of a just fixed funeral He'd started counting its numeral: Negotiator of the fairest price. For twenty five bags of Thailand Rice... Negotiator meets, too, Mortician And relates to him as Beautician: One is as good as partaker, Who goes around as undertaker "Well, he's for badly frowning corpses Owners pay thousands for cleaned lapses". Man wants his wife's corpse to start smiling; If this...

Even with death The Man’s gotta bargain a price So I suppose that’s why that fat a** mortician As a sales technique Made my wife and I pick who gets to sit From the one available chair In his lavender lobby For a full hour the morning after Before he bothered to waddle out Wiping bean soup from his forehead Ushering us in to his...

Premium Member Creepo Mortician Who Loved the Graveyard Shift
The lighting - it was over-bright above the table where she lay, her skin dead cold but lovely white. The lighting -it was over-bright, He loved work best alone at night. With corpses he could have his way. The lighting - it was over-bright above the table where she lay. Written June 19, 2016...

The Creepy Mortician
Nightly in the mirror she would stare, and pull out clumps of her own hair. Wigs she wore during the day, while doing things her way. Neighbors said the way she walked, the way she talked was very creepy. For quite some time she was able to maintain, the fact that she was slowly going insane. People did notice when she...

The Mortician
So, this is it then, no Borealis How abysmal the beginning is After that climax of wondering Comes just this, this replica. Thoughts keep me company, still yet Make all the memories go, go, go! Incessant replays with constant reverb Strike the fork and see where it bounces I think my skin is gone now, mostly Still I feel it crawling not away but...
