I Will Come To Your Funeral

I will come to your funeral Simply to look at your dead face Not to pay respect. You were a disgrace To the community. You were a general Who forgot that all of us were passing by It's sad that I won't come to say goodbye But to witness the justice of the Almighty I won't laugh. I won't be sorry or have pity For you, because you were an spiteful devil For crying out loud, you were never an angel You loved money and power. Now, how much Do you have in your coffin? You were out of touch With the reality of life on this strange planet Presently, all your assets belong to the ingrate In your prime, you were ritzy and mean In your old age, you became a fugly scene I will come to your funeral To attest that no human or animal Will live forever. And nobody is eternal. Copyright © August 2019, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved. Hébert Logerie is the author of several books of poetry.
