The Grim Reaper
Dead on his feet
After a hard day
At work,
Takes the night off.

The following is what others say behind my back about my driving;
"He is still alive today for only one reason.
The Grim Reaper is afraid to get into the car with him."

Her nickname perhaps should be ‘Whizzy’
She rushes round making me dizzy
Right now, she’s unwell
But asked me to tell
That grim reaper guy that she’s busy

her cheerful sign said live your best life
would that be a life without any strife?
Not necessarily said the negative window peeper
Just try to stay away from the ugly grim reaper

Grim Reaper strolls in
Stands looking down at her face
She opens an eye
Then sits up in bed, scowling
Grim Reaper slinks off next door

When one becomes a billionaire
There's only so much they can spend or share
With all the perks
The grim reaper lurks
So what's all the fuss, enjoy the scenery and fresh air

THE GRAVE TRUTH
It was not undertakers that fell in.
Running through a graveyard - night’s subtle sin.
Brothers in moonlight.
One slipped out of sight.
He’s the first one the grim reaper would win.

Go away, Grim Reaper. You've got more waiting to do, death
I refuse to let you rob me of this fun, beautiful life just yet
I'll continue to smell it's invigorating fragrance

Here lies the body of the grim Reaper
six foot down perhaps a lot deeper,
he fell for the devils evil little scam
sold his soul, but who gives a damn.

Epitaph
When you wake up, startled,
and see the Grim Reaper
Do you shut your eyes
and pretend you are still asleep?
Would this be enough to make him go away
or take someone else?
If it was a loved one, would you feel glad
or relived?

I am scared of baby Dracula the twelve-year-old said.
What frightens you? I asked him. Staring at his pretty head.
I think it is his teeth, they are pointed, it is weird.
Being a grim reaper, I think it is amazing that this is who he feared.

Gold
is a false value
for no matter how many bars one owns,
no amount of bars can protect
one from nature and the grim reaper
money by itself can't control
the snow and rain
only wisdom and intelligence are the remaining
treasures that will last

Death life’s’ adversary
Cruel selfless all about me
Discriminate no bounds
Grim reaper swallows
Another soul washed away
A child is born
Life is carried on
Love and empathy
A sad lover’s song
Dark closes in on
My hapless heart
An empty end
A fruitless start

My fame worldwide
My house palace - like
My money spread about in banks
My friends are high calibers
My street named after me
My city, I am the mayor
My picture on adverts
My cars are latest series
My job is with His Excellency
Someday I will lose all to the grim reaper

I'm clostrophobic
But I live in tiny spaces
I'm afraid of fire
And I burn down places
I have a fear of death
So I kill the grim reaper
I'm afraid of holes
But still I dig deeper
I dont like water
So I swim across seas
I'm scared of gang bangers
Thats why i'm an O.G.

Enjoy your life; do all that you can
with purpose
because you can’t live it again.
Embrace what you do with great zeal
and with joy.
Your life the Grim Reaper shall steal.
Don’t think that your life God will save
just like that
if good works you put off till your grave.
