Dead Man Standing? Poem by Joe Rosochacki

Angelo Pantoja Medina used Mark Twain’s wit literally,
What I mean to say he’d was attending his own funeral though he was dead already.
Dead Man Walking was a movie that was about an inmate on Death Row,
Dead Man Standing is now taking place in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Mark Twain’s witty comment about his demise,
'It seems that the news of my death has been greatly over exaggerated'.
Angelo,
by his wishes, made news around the world not by any surprise.
He gained fame for what he has done in death,
Not to out done by Shakespeare’s Macbeth.
What jokes are to be generated.
