(any resemblance to the following and
living persons iz purely coincidental)

Family, friends, and
     strangers didst weep
when my brutally
     murdered gagged and
     bound distended corpse
     put to eternal sleep
unbeknownst to homicide deep
pill lore hubble

     killer, said murderer,
     would sow what he did reap
on the deadly war holy jeep
purrs, cow path
     this angry ghost
effortlessly held scented rag
     to choke, a keep
sake squeezing out breath

     from my corporeal flesh
     with maggots didst creep
     still adrip when bled,
to death, now enshrouded
     in black hoodie,
     and scythe leant lee
     cackled with grateful dread
enroute to pay the

     killer man moments ago
     took hoof on
     horse back fled
in hot pursuit destination,
     albeit unknown,
     yet aye twill find
     trumpeting psychopath,
     and quickly dismember

     off with his head,
thus equipped with
     keen bloodhound find
     ding needle in hay
stack instinctive second nature
     vengeance casually,
     I hapt lee ghoul
     lucky did allay

fresh trail scented out lay
boring haphazard way
word ness after gray
beard i.e. yours
     truly he did slay
     no matter wiseacre, may
be goot headstart, said jay
bird haint gonna

     be twittering furlong,
     cuz tell trail (and tail) flay
ming signs, he didst betray
noon the wiser hoo ray
bethought to brush
     meticulously (cover) tracks
     over most likely today
will merely (and merrily delay)

this phantom of neigh (nee)
and dearth all giving away
hideout, now tis
     my turn, I didst inveigh
     asper his final "say"

perhaps with ghost to
     (gusto) hollering as no weigh
to hex press me excitement
     thrusting sword
     into his heart yay!
