Kanye West Writes He's Dead in Dark Poem

The foundation of the premise of the poem written by West is murder.

The poem seems to be a case of art imitating life. If we can be so bold to interpret, it seems he's telegraphing that all of his recent struggles has left him lifeless, but he didn't realize it until now.

The poem begins with "No one wanted to tell me I was dead", which is a sad and lonely account of his death.

There seems to be references to the divorce and the fact that Kim now owns the family house.

He complains about the press that he read.

He reveals how he met his demise. He does not identify the murderer, but I found out at the newsstand that there was a front page article.

His mother said she would not explain the new piece for the explanation because it destroyed the mystery and magic of true love.
