Aw, this is really sad, Bill. Specially the please mama part about pweez bweevin'. All your poetry is so amazingly unique. Wherever do you get all your ideas from?

As always perfectly written.

Hello there, Bill

Love this satyrical story/poem.

Life and death so often share a humorous side, and you have brought out the best of both here.

A good read

kind regards

tracey

I loved the poem until this line:

"Pweez (sniff) bweev"

What is "bweev". Also, perhaps write it like this.

"Pweez," he sniffed, "bweev"

Outside of that dialogue - loved it. Your poem tells a story in a fun way. Joe really comes alive in this poem. Great job.

What a terrible fate she had choking on Alka Seltzer foam! Poor Joe, he is left alone to grieve. Good humour and rhyming. Fun read. faye

Dang git, Bill. Poems about death are not supposed to be laughed at.

Hahahhaha! Dang git. That is funny. I would love to know how you keep your creative humor so vital and fecund.

    Thank you, Jay, for being an upbeat voice. Since school's started I have less time to punch these out. I've a long list of reviews to read as well. I really appreciate your views on this. Bill

Bill;
-a black humored satirical piece of poetry Were each of the rhyming words are contingent to the meaning and concept of each line therefore making the rhythm to flow smoothly.
-The rhythmic meter, cadence, timing and Tempo also helpful in making the reading clear, fluid and easy.
-I found this poem lucidly sad.
-Thank you for sharing and posting and made the good Lord be with you always Bill.

a nicely run story in a poem. I love the 'straight to read' format of this poem. Joe Jerome will forever stay in the honeycomb, right?
