RAPPER Kanye West wrote a portentous poem about his death and the reason for its cause is murder. He says the event has already occurred, reported TMZ.

The poem, posted on Instagram, seems to voice the struggles of his very public divorce from Kim Kardashian. It goes on to assert that it has left him lifeless – of which he was ignorant, until now.

The first line "No one wanted to tell me I was DEAD" tells the sad and solitary state of his passing. Adding to this was also the image of people coming to his grave sprinkling bread on the ground so the birds could be fed.

On his separation, he wrote "My kids would dance for me in a home I once led" – probably implying that Kardashian now heads the family home.

With the line "Everything was wrong in the press that I read," he continues to voice his general dissatisfaction. 

On how he found about his death: "I found out one day at the newsstand in purgatory there was a front-page article of my murderer's story." There was no clue on who the murderer is.

West remained characteristically cryptic on what he meant by his poem.

"I will not explain this new piece for the explanation destroys the mystery and magic of true love and puts it in a box that can be counted," he said. – The Vibes, March 11, 2022
