Premonition of Death

Folder: 
2002 Poetry

In dreams I see my demise

It's exactly how it will end

Don't fret, for it's years

Before the angel they send



My life will be enjoyed

During many years to come

Until then to death

My nose I'll just thumb



I'll die when I'm ninety

Before I can stand

Shot dead in bed

By a jealous husband

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The last line of this was something an old TV personality use to say.  I always liked it!
