Last Shopping List

entry picture

A pint of whole milk
A loaf of white bread
(And think of the shopping
You'll save when you're dead),

Some butter, some cheese,
A crusty French stick
(And check "best before";
It goes bad so quick),

A small tin of peace,
Some angel food cake,
Some good instant coffin
(To keep me a wake),

Some cocoa, some tea,
Some Cumberland pies.
(I paid with my life
And the coins on my eyes)

(written impromptu for a prompt)
