A Poem About Chuckling and Death

It is important to appear happy
near the dead because when they come
back for you looking to seriously move things
around in your house and step around
in shadows like weird little creeps
well
they need to know that they should absolutely not interfere
with your life because you are too happy to fuck with
and anyway you will be joining them soon enough
a little chuckle right before it comes
here it is you think as it comes
and it does come with a slow velocity
bigger than a ton of earth by so much
it takes years to get there
and then it does.
