Tenth grade epitaph

I was going though my desk today and found an old english assignment. In tenth grade, my teacher had each student in the class prepare an epitaph for themselves. He then combined them and gave us each a copy. What follows is some really bad poetry that, at the time, must have summed up what i thought my life would be like. You may read it if you promise not to make fun of me later.

Once upon a time
there lived this guy named Flick
who lived a great life
which ended much to quick

Having completed college
he formed his own conglomerate
called it "Flick Enterprises"
and put himself in charge of it

Running the business for nearly four years
and making a 9.4 trillion profit
he decided to leave the company
and become a spermatological prophet

He opened his own university
to share his trivia and fun facts too
but left after only five years
knowing what he was meant to do

He flew off to Malta
Oreo's in hand
went off by himself
and began to write the greatest reference book known to man

To be titled the "Book of Flick"
this 323 volume set
would have everything you'd what to know
and some you want to forget

But this story has a tragic ending
for while working on volume 311
he choked on an Oreo cookie
while writing about Yemen

He worked so hard for so very long
that i am sorry it turned out this way
because he wrote the book by hand
no one can read it anyway
