Tuesday Poem: "I Did Not Tell Death Where I Live" by Brian Bilston

 
I did not tell Death where I lived -
But He has found me all the same.
I hear Him knocking on my door
And calling out my name.

My Snapchat settings kept Him out.
On Twitter I did block Him.
Facebook friend requests were spurned -
Yet still He keeps on knocking.

Court injunctions were sought and filed
But still I sit in fear.
Oh, my mistake. It is not Death -
I think my pizza's here.
