Miser

Eating expired food
To save on wastage
Buying half-baked cakes
To save on owner’s gas
Wearing crumpled suits
To expense no iron-box
Driving his car not
To skip mortgaging
Going not to the doctor
To avoid medical bill
Dying in a coffin in a hole
To skip paying the grave digger
Writing the cause of death
To avoid postmortem bill
Leaving a well written epitaph
 ‘Waste not thy tears!’
