accomplishedBoy Kissed to Death
Poem for Day 011 – 20141004
This is a very sad tale
of a lusty youthful lad
who came to an end so sad
at the lips of his best gal.
Some say it was the sandwich
laden with peanut butter.
It was an allergy they mutter
that took the lad before his time.
A deep kiss was the cause
saliva swapped, lips embraced.
The errant nut put in place,
swift death came to take the lad.
But wait, there is an update.
The story has been revised.
It was not as they surmised.
Another end was his fate.
He had a heart attack.
The autopsy revealed.
It could not be concealed.
His girlfriend was cut no slack.
It was due to exertion
expressed before the kiss,
that caused this heart to miss
and the boy was kissed to death.
