Write me a Will


by Larry Strattner


Write me a Will you laughing boy,

assignment for all of my worldly goods.

No one will mourn me, remember or miss me,

but all are entranced by my toys

 

Write me a Will with a grin on your face,

to give away all of my things.

Sate the roaring crowd's appetite.

Usher them into the hollow place.

 

Write me a Will in your simpering style,

knowing it all comes to dust,

knowing that greed comes to rust.

Use all your decay to beguile.

 

Write me a Will you laughing boy.

Write me a Will with a grin on your face.

Write me a Will in your simpering style.

Pen me the joke with which heirs to annoy.
