I close my eyes in eternal rest.
On my epitaph
' He tried his best '
My life was spent in deepest learning.
What a crock.
Can you smell burning ?

Well...
This was interesting to say the least. Does this mean you would think you could be going down? I hope not. Good luck in the contest! The Shaker

Hah! That was awesome! You were expecting this serious piece, a tear-jerker. Sorrow. But you twisted it perfectly.

Nice, I loved the dark humor in this, especially the ending, I do agree with comments below, it would most definently be the first of its kind
This was done differently I liked it and at first I thought it was going to be serious and then you twisted it around so it was something that could be taken in many ways. Haha nice job.
Thanks for entering.
