"Good Bye" by Tom Greening

 My monument 

If ever I, per chance may die,

please don't lament and do not cry, 

just build a gain monument

of solid marble, not cement.

Illuminate it well at night,

make sure it's an inspiring sight. 

The world will grieve that I've deceased--

grant it a pompous prop at least

ten feet or more from toe to head

(but first, make sure I'm really dead)
