Close Shaves and Final Cuts

 


When they shave me for


the last time,

   

as they always tend to do ..


Please be sure


that they use my old razor,


or a proper one


and most definitely not one


that has been


borrowed or some electric


   whirring thing ..


Oh’ and if by chance they


should fail to


nick my waxy chin, cheeks,


or saggy jowls,


just be sure that, I forgive


you and indeed


everyone absolutely every


   single thing ..


But please, make sure that


the guy with


the razor makes a test cut


before applying


any rouge or makeup they


   think necessary ..


And should by any chance


I bleed at all


during the above outlined


   procedure ..


Then reschedule all planned


celebrations


and go get a decent physician


   out to me pronto ..

I've ordered an open casket, with me unshaved and wearing my huffle-buffs and I've even included scratches on the interior lid, just in case anyone tries digging me up at any time.
I've also asked the make up artist to use Michael Jackson's thriller for inspiration! 😃

Ah whimsey. Hope you have a bell in the crematorium. Excellent and dark. Very dark. Cue manic laughter.

I love it when you talk dirty like that Ken .. cheers
Hope you're intending to leave us just yet? I'd miss reading your poetry!

A frank and sincere poetic request with an enjoyable wry twist at the end!!
