Death is recession proof
Bringing in new business deals
For Insurers and Undertakers
Priests and florists too wait
Along side the grave-diggers
To ride on death's rich gravy train
Remember the tourists
Death leaves something for them too
Monuments like the Taj Mahal
The many masks of death...superbly crafted in your 678....excellent show of your natural talent my lovely......keep them coming 10++++
Great work Sandra. You have certainly brought to light these masks of the dead. An intelligent and informative poem. 10 Karin Anderson
Your creative vision is 20/20. Your reference to the Taj Mahal is especially memorable. Kind regards, Sandra
There is more than a touch of cynicism in this clever poem that lifts 'death' from the domain of the and romantic and puts it fair and square in the here and now. Death and taxes - inevitable we're told. Your poem shares your ideas with skill and a lyrical, gently mocking voice. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Guess it's true some things never change..loved the full trip in this one.
Biting irony in there. I found the ending particularly devastating.
touching effect and relates the realty of our borrowed life.. sad yet it leaves positive things... meaningful piece...in a good style form 10++++ lovelots, Maia
