He did not receive high school education
He did not know the US President, either;
But he was a soloist, par se.
Amen.
browsing through emails,
and searching for an address,
just by accident
I come across an old friend's
poignant obituary
Listen to poem:
Cant Get Over That
My name bestowed upon
me, is not me!
It's my parents' label.
A wrist band immutable.
America 2020, yet another Hell on Earth
Her premise sadly unkept
The world-at-large simply shrugged
~ Fools and Poets wept
Loves control through Fear
Variant spouse-righteous blame
flat liner heart waves
thirty and four-lorn strangers
where does the time go
2025’s manuscript
Tips off the rip-offs as we’re gypped!
When oligarchs die
They'll not greed deny
But flip us the bird from their crypt
Epitaph to Ted
Here lies dear old Ted
Who always loved his bed
Now he gets to sleep forever
On that cloud like a feather

my life
hopefully to be
like my poems
beginning and end
nothing before
some memories hereafter
with enjoyable nonsense
in between
She is gone now
Gone but not fogotten
Is her touch
Soft upon me
Soft as mist upon the morn
She is gone now
As mist upon the morn
I mourn
Fantastic firms aka looters
Make polymers and are polluters
Their products break down
Spread all over town
They even serve plastic at Hooters
Let's make no bones about it ~
He left many skeletons in the closet!

Little angel,
you have got your wings to fly,
fly far away beyond the sky,
where your spirit may soar high,
into the light beyond human bondage.

Uncle Joe
Here lies my old Uncle Joe.
We sure weren’t sad to see him go.
He ripped off everyone he met.
Now his poor wife must pay his debt.

I am finally back
but with a hole in my heart
My dear sister and I
had to part.
God decided to take her
home on high
I only had time
to say "Goodbye".
Jack came to the strangest conclusion,
which was: Time's an illusion.
He turned up very late
to each appointment and date
till the day of his very own funeral.
Hugh Hefner, also known as 'Hef'
To most females was quite tone-deaf
He recast grown women as fawning bunnies
Who drooled over his scantily-clad wad of money
Write your own obituary in details, dear
Before you embark upon your career.

Goodbye, Prince Philip
A man who stood steadfast by the woman he loves
... and helped her lead a nation to glory
May your afterlife be a tranquil journey

Seeking life among the dead
living like the dead among the living
a ghost haunting city streets
chasing the void--
the dark places/
between the stars and neons
Gail Blyke
Died just last night
Kind, loving woman
Survived by
Her daughter and her three grandsons
Flowers can be sent to
1456 Primot Drive
Condolences are welcome
Many Tears Seemed To Have Shed
So many tears seemed to be shed,
After sadly found dead in his bed;
Did realize,
A surprise;
Obituary about him we had read.
Jim Horn
Whenever I shall die
whatever will become
of poems I have sent
my soul to represent?
Will they still be welcome
here after my goodbye?
Respond if you wish in verse
The monument was stone --
actually marble, somewhat
more affluent. The writing
was calligraphy, carefully
chiseled by a fine hand.
The occupant was dead -- All the same….
Doomsday’s dismal dawn, in the deep distance,
Is our dusk, the diadem of decadence;
Daunting and depthless, a dark and doleful dirge
Deems this dungeon of demons due for death
