Where Dead People Poem by Francis Duggan

The words of a wise one and truer words never said
That only earthworms live in the graves of the dead
Your former earthly possessions no use to you there
Your family the benefit of your life's work will share
Your money in death you cannot take with you behind you it will stay
And life is for living enjoy it whilst you may
Equality prevails where dead people lay in eternal rest
Where everybody is equal and none is the best
In the place where anybody is not burdened by care
A known fact where dead people lay not one millionaire
And though those who die with billions in assets and money are no longer rare
They did not take it with them of this everyone is aware
So enjoy your money for time on you is ticking away
There are no millionaires where dead people lay.
