Lies To The Dead Poem by Kingsley Egbukole
Lies To The Dead
Rating: ★5.0
Say not the good things about me when I am dead
Of what reward is a good report to my carcass
Things hid from me when I could breathe
Take your fill of drink and food
The reward of your false nice report
It may be your last who knows.
