Deathwords VII: Daisy, Daisy ...


Deathwords VII: Daisy, Daisy

Daisy Smith and Daisy Jones—oh,
Both of them were crazies:

Now they push up daisies.

A breathing competition. Sue
Had won it in the past.
But this time in the finals, well,
Poor Susan breathed her last.

She loved that shade the most,
But she met Edward Cullen, and
At once gave up the ghost.

Deathwords IV: Bob's Misfortune


Bob’s Misfortune

Bob loved to play draw poker, so
He made some Vegas trips—
But tried to cheat some gangsters there
And cashed in all his chips.

Titus’ Ill Luck

Titus was a clumsy guy—he
Had such rotten luck; it
Turned: He found a milking job, but
Then he kicked the bucket.

Was smitten by his charm.

But then he bought the farm.

In My Yard

And I was really stoked.
I held it in my hand and dreamed,
But then—oh no!—he croaked!
