poem – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

The Undertaker

The time for repentance
Has truly begun
Enter the Grim Reaper

Understand that in this life,
Nothing and no one lasts forever, except
Death: absolute, everlasting
Eternal damnation for the wayward
Rats and hounds, rotting souls
Treasure your borrowed time on earth
Arrange your affairs, say your goodbyes
Know, feel, enjoy your last minutes, and
Enter the next world with The Reaper
Rest in peace

A part of 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2025), and an acrostic poem dedicated to my favorite professional wrestler of all time, The Undertaker. Today, November 22, 2025, is the 35th anniversary of his WWE debut at Survivor Series.

Look back and celebrate The Deadman’s first appearance by watching the video below. Press play, and you will go straight to Ted DiBiase’s introduction. (But if that doesn’t happen, skip to the 2:30 mark.)

Happiest 35th anniversary, Deadman!

The Wall II

Now’s the perfect time to break the wall
and let out the loudest bawl
for I am finally reinvigorated
and depression is obliterated

Now’s the perfect time to break the wall
and get ready for the next brawl
All of my demons should run
My road to redemption has begun

Now’s the perfect time to break the wall
and tell Death to recall
This is not the end of my story
I will run through life with fury
