I Died Three Years Ago Poem by Barry Middleton

I Died Three Years Ago

Rating: 5.0


I died three years ago
no one noticed
probably because I kept on moving

generally speaking
dead things lie very still and quiet
but I kept on moving and talking

it seemed the thing to do
everyone said stay positive
everyone said I looked well

no one noticed that I had died
no one noticed
as they passed my ghost in the street
