It's like this
There was once a very very very very very very. Sooner and sooner it was later than later. All the plates were spliced and the forked tongue was saucy. Dishing out compliments, I said to the chef what sex are you. Chef goes head. Right I say not uncompregnating. Little does he know said the menu. I had to order it. Sit down I cried. My birthdays are always awful. There wasn't even time to cut the cord and name the beast. Total blow out.

Death Is Dead
"Death is dead," he said.
"We have killed it."
"But -"
"It was the last thing to die."
*
"Death is dead," he said
shaking his head.
The head, that is, of
the last person to disagree.
*
"Death is dead," we said,
nodding our heads.
But it was not
the last we heard of it.
"We have killed it."
"But -"
"It was the last thing to die."

"Death is dead," he said
shaking his head.
The head, that is, of
the last person to disagree.

"Death is dead," we said,
nodding our heads.
But it was not
the last we heard of it.
