My Famous Last Words
I had a friend named Nick
Whose last missive was short and quick
He wrote in the sand with his stick
I told you I was sick
Some leave with very choice words
Others curse aloud at the Kurds
While dying we all are nerds
To the same place we go, worm turds
To leave this earth with a bang
To ring someone’s bell with a clang
Lurch approached the door, “You rang?”
“I’m dyin’ out here”, Fester sang
We all die, from servant to king
The last parting words we all want to sing
Here you go my wife, take my ring
Because tomorrow your pee will sting
Spite and anger are often behind
These last bitter thoughts that unwind
We care not if we hate or are kind
Either way you can kiss my behind
We may live a life of fun
We may even be a chosen one
But as we lob these last words toward the sun
Between the eyes we aim to stun
A final punch in my very last fight
Before I say goodbye to the night
I strive with all my might
To make your sphincter flex and clench tight
The goal is to shock and to awe
My words cut the carotid like a saw
As I fall into the gaping maw
One last blow to the face with my paw
So fear the next one to die
And fear how they will say goodbye
For if they choose to do more than sigh
Prepare to sit down and cry
How do I end this wordy impasse?
As I leave my lovely lass
She stands nearby with her new beau
How do I tell her she hurts me so?
So I grasp the hand of my lass
And decide on my words at last
Dear darling my heart breaks like glass
Turn me over and kiss my dying ass
